You probably need to provide more info for an exact answer, but here goes based on my assumptions.\n\n47 normal field goals - I take normal to mean non-three pointers, so 47 * 2 = 94.\n\n23 free throws - I assume you mean that it is 23 made free throws (and not just attempted Free throws), so 23 *1 = 23\n\n12 fouls - Fouls themselves have no impact on scoring. I will count them as 0 points.\n\nThus you have 94 + 23 + 0 = 117 points

Not sure of the answer on this one... but it is an excellent trivia question.  Hope someone can find an answer...\n\nOne thing I do know, when you look at the list of most points scored in a single game, you can eliminate Wilt Chamberlain as a possible answer to your question... in 1,045 games, averaging just over 30 points per game over the course of his career (along with averaging 23 rebounds per game), Chamberlain NEVER fouled out of a game.\n\nWilt had about 120 or so 50+ pt games in his career, including 32 60+ pt games...  \n\nBut despite playing 45 minutes per game over the course of his career, he never fouled out... (Wilt actually averaged 48 and a half minutes per game during one season... he only sat out 6 minutes all year, but played many more minutes of overtime, ending up at 48.5 minutes played per game).  These days, anyone who can stay on the court for 40 minutes in ONE game is considered an iron-man!

I hate basketball officiating, but that could just be because everytime someone breathes on the guy with the ball it is a foul. These guys are professional athletes, they can handle it. Let them play the freakin' game!

No, it has only been allowed since the 2001-2002 season, when they took the following determinations:\n1-Eliminated all existing illegal defense guidelines. \n2-Established a defensive 3-second rule, limiting the amount of time a defensive player may stand in the lane when he is not closely guarding someone. \n3-Reduced from 10 seconds to 8 seconds the amount of time a team will have to advance the ball past midcourt.\n4-Eliminated touch fouls by allowing brief contact initiated by a defensive player if it does not impede the progress of the player with the ball. \n\nHope this clarifies your doubts.

Their are mulitple rules in basketball, I was reading the NBA(National Basketball Association) rules and it takes up like 6 full pages. Be aware that rules depend on where ur playing, Street, College, and NBA have a very distingished set of rules, similar but different. \n\nRules change every few years, but not commonly. In the NBA, the rules are now much stricter than they were 50 years ago.

Mavs if the refs call the game the way they should. Everyone is sick of the 380 lb ape in the middle.Won't mention any names though size 24 shoes can't dribble fouls every 10 seconds.3sec violations constantly, Travelling.But I didnt mention your name.

The ref was correct, in my opinion.\n\nHere are some of the pertentent free throw rules for the NBA (I know, not college or high school, but I believe that they are similar):\n\na. After the ball is placed at the disposal of a free throw shooter, his attempt shall be within 10 seconds in such a way that the ball enters the basket or touches the ring before it is touched by a player. The shooter shall be within that part of the free throw circle behind the free throw line. \n\nc. A player who occupies a free throw lane space shall not touch the floor on or across the free throw lane line, nor shall any player 'back out' more than 3' from the free throw lane line. A player who does not occupy a free throw lane space must remain behind the three-point line. This restriction applies until the ball leaves the free thrower's hands. \n\nThese two rules might be slightly different for college or high school ball, but I am not sure.\n\nNow, here is the ruling on penalties levied:\n\n(6) If there is a free throw violation by each team, on a free throw which is to remain in play, the ball becomes dead, no point can be scored and play shall be resumed by a jump ball between any two opponents at the center circle. \n\nThese are NBA rules, but I believe that, though the mechanics might be a little different (jump ball, for example), the generalities are still the same for college and high school.\n\nThe shooter and the defender both violated rules, and there is no precendent for one rule or the other, and so the ball becomes dead, perhaps, in this case, being awarded to the other team?

Yes it is a foul if you touch  aggressively the other player. Running after you dribble is called a traveling.  If you are in the 3 second box and they count you 3 second it is a foul.

in amateur leagues, 5 fouls and you're out. in professional basketball, you'll be out in the 6th foul. if you get 2 technical fouls, you're also thrown out of the game.

The NBA has always given the benefit of the doubt to the star players regardless of what team they play for Watch Tim Duncan sometimes if he misses its a foul hell if he shoves someone out of his way and drives to the basket while leaning into another player its a three point opportunity.

Yes, it was a factor. When in game 4, Wade shoots all those free throws, yet gets called for just one foul, it's a little out of balance. Credit Wade and Shaq for pounding the ball inside. Maybe the Mavs should have done the same.

Basketball can be played by as few as two players. However, organized basketball games include two teams comprised of five players per team. Each team can have more than five players, but only five players per team are allowed on the court at one time.\n\nThe team's head coach determines when players go in and come out of the game. Reserve players enter the game through a process called substitution. Substitutions can only occur when play stops, such as during a timeout or when the referee calls a violation.\n\nEach player on a team is categorized by position. There are five positions on a traditional basketball team: \n    * Point guard - This player is typically the best dribbler and passer on the team. The point guard is sometimes called the floor general, which indicates the key role that the point guard plays.\n\n    * Shooting guard - The shooting guard, also called the two guard, is typically a team's best outside shooter on the team. This player flanks the point guard and moves around the court to try to create some space to take a shot that is uncontested by the opposition.\n\n    * Power forward - The power forward is usually near the basket and moves from one side of the basket to the other to try to get free from the opposition player that is guarding him. Power forwards also are skilled rebounders.\n\n    * Small forward - The small forward is typically a better outside shooter than a power forward and is usually smaller than a power forward.\n\n    * Center - Traditionally, the center is the tallest player on the team. The center's role is to establish a position near the basket to allow him/herself an easy jump shot. On defense, the center attempts to block shots and grab rebounds.

A personal foul is a team foul in all but two situations.  Loose ball fouls, which occur when the ball is not possessed by either team, and an offensive foul do not count as team fouls.  Also, technical fouls do not count as team fouls.  Any other foul called will count as a team foul.  When a team accumulates five team fouls in one quarter the other team is awarded two foul shots on all successive fouls.  If a team has not yet amassed 5 team fouls but gets two team fouls in the last two minutes of any quarter they again are awarded two foul shots for every successive foul.  Hope this helps!
