Full-court basketball. Up to 500 per hour. Football is more, but it's not like you can just go out and play it.

This season the WNBA will introduce three new rules that are sure to affect the style, productivity and speed of the game. \nThe three-point line will be moved from 19' 9" to the international distance of 20' 6¼", and the lane will be widened from 12' to the NBA width of 16'. In addition, the 30-second shot clock will be reset to 20 seconds (as opposed to 30 seconds under the previous rule) when a defensive foul or other defensive violation occurs with less than 20 seconds remaining on the shot clock, and will be left unchanged when a defensive violation occurs with 20 seconds or more remaining on the shot clock.

Nine innings, but if the game is tied the teams go into extra innings. Overtime can go on for several innings until somebody wins. If the visiting team scores in the top of the inning they must prevent the home team from catching back up in the bottom of the inning, but if the home team takes the lead in the bottom of the inning they automatically win. That's one of the reasons that home field is such a big deal for any team.

I would think 40 just like everywhere else.\n\nHowever, this can depend on your job.  I had a seasonal job where it wasn't considered overtime until after 45 hours.

When the game originated, they used a clock to keep score.  For the first point, they moved the minute hand to 15, then 30, then 45, then back to 0 for game.  Overtime 45 was shortened to 40 for ease.

There are many differences between NBA, NCAA, and Ny High School Basketball rules. First of which is length and division of games. NBA and High School divide the game into quarters, while NCAA has only halves. Eligibility is different between all three and is way to complex to describe here. As far as the simple flow of the game, the NBA has some complex rules regarding zone defense that does not apply to NCAA and High School. In short there are differences in number of timeouts, number of fouls, where three point line is, and where the ball may be inbounded after stops in play. There may sometimes be different interpretations of rules, however a walk is a walk, a foul is a foul, and cussing out the referee will get you a technical nearly everyy time.

It was a new one on me.. but i found this...While these are all good changes, to summarily conclude that we will see an increase in scoring during the 2001-02 NBA season is just plain misguided. Players' and coaches' skills determine scoring, not rules. \n\nChanging the ten-second count to an eight-second count shouldn't have much impact on a team's offense since it is rare that a team takes as many as six or seven seconds to cross the timeline. This rule, instituted to help speed up the game, may actually help defenses more since a trapping/pressing defense has two seconds fewer to hold the opposition in the backcourt before forcing the turnover. Coaches who have been reluctant to trap in the backcourt might do so this season to take advantage of the new two-second difference over the old rule. I say: advantage, defense on this rule. I guess it was 01-02 this from a trailblazer website

Well, let's start here.\n\nSTEP 1: Award 1 point for each free throw made. Free throws (also called foul shots) are attempted after a foul has been committed on a player who was in the act of shooting. \n\nSTEP 2: Add on 2 points for each successful basket made against the opposition. \n\nSTEP 3: Award 3 points for each successful basket made from beyond the 3-point line, which in the National Basketball Association (NBA) ranges from 22 feet to 23 feet 9 inches from the basket. A 3-point shot in the Women's NBA is 19 feet 9 inches from the basket. \n\nSTEP 4: Note that additional points are awarded in various other situations. Technical fouls, illegal defense fouls and flagrant fouls often result in free throws. \n\nSTEP 5: Understand that the team with the most total points at the end of regulation time wins the game. Barring overtime, NBA games last 48 minutes and college games last 40 minutes. Tips & Warnings \n\nAlso what level of basketball do you keep score for? This may help you in your journey in terms of keeping score?

In the knock out stage there must be a winner. If there is no winner after 90 minutes of play extra time is added, 2 periods of 15 minutes.  If, after that extra time, still no winner has emerged they go into the shoot-out.

There is no time limit and the time depends on how even the teams are in talent, if one is considerably better it can end in half an hour, if they are equal it can last  a bit longer than a hour.

if you dont know,  why would you join a team?  anyway,  there are far too many rules to sit here and list them all.  do a web search or go to wikipedia on the rules of basketball.  this is too detailed for answers.  good luck!

Two seasons ago, the rules changed from a best-of-5 series in the first round (first 2 on home advantage team's court, next 2 on the other team's court, and the decisive) to a best-of-7 game series (2-2-1-1-1). The second round and the conference finals have the same format, but the NBA Finals, althought is also a best-of-7 games series, the format is different (2-3-2).\n\nHope that answer your question and any other doubt regarding the playoffs.

Official 60 minutes because they have three 20 minute periods but with stoppage, breaks it will take about two hours and a half to three hours and that's without Over-time, Shoot-outs, that's another 30 minutes
