There's never necesarily a final game unless it's game seven of the NBA finals.  I think that you are probably looking for the final series, which is called the finals.

Both are played on a court with a ball, a net, and 5 players. In both if you  send the ball out of bounds the ball is given to the other team. In basketball the idea is to put the ball in the net while in volleyball, it has to go over the net. in basketball the players can roam the entire court, but in volleyball they have to stay on their own side. In volleyball you serve the ball to the other team while in Basketball you pass the ball to your teamate. In volleyball the other team serves the ball to you, in Basketball you have to steal it from the other team. In Baketball you play a timed games, but in volleyball the games are regulated by the points scored. And the match isn't over until the first team wins two games. In basketball the team with the most points at the end of the final period wins, in volleyball the first team to 15 and leading by two points wins.

basketball. When you shoot the ball to make a basket, the force with which it is thrown, combats with gravity. This determines at what point the ball will start to fall towards the basket.

Basketball is played by two teams of five players each on a rectangular court, generally 50 by 94 feet for college and professional teams, 50 by 84 feet for high school players. (These dimensions are called "ideal" in the rules; they are not definitely prescribed, and high school teams often have smaller courts.) The court is divided into halves by the halfcourt line.\n\nAt the center of a court is the center jump circle, and at either end of the court, 4 feet from the end line, there is a basket, a rim 18 in in diameter and 10 feet above the floor, from which hangs a net of white cord 15 to 18 in long. Behind each basket is a backboard. For college and professional play, it is a glass rectangle 72 in wide by 48 in high; high schools may use a fan-shaped backboard 54 in wide. Beneath each basket a 12-foot lane (16 feet in professional play) is marked, ending at the free throw line, which is 15 feet from the basket. The free throw circle is inscribed around the line.\n\nThe 3-point line is an arc 19 feet, 9 inches from the basket in college basketball, 20 feet, 6 inches under international rules. In the NBA, the line is 23 feet, 9 inches from the basket for most of its length but only 22 feet away in the corners.\n\nThe basketball is spherical, 29 ½ to 30 inches in circumference and 20 to 22 ounces in weight. When dropped from a height of 6 feet a properly inflated ball will bounce to a height of 49-54 inches.

Loose ball foul as the term suggests is a foul called when neither team is in possession of the basketball. It's a NBA term and is not used in international basketball (FIBA).\n\nThe NBA uses this terminology to describe a foul where neither team is in immediate control of the ball. This is important in the NBA, since they don't count offensive fouls in the team foul count (for shooting penalty). In FIBA, if player A1 fumbled the ball and while the ball was rolling around loose on the floor, player A2 fouled opponent B1 while trying to recover the ball, it would be an offensive foul, since Team A is still deemed to have team control until a shot is taken or Team B gains possession. In the NBA, that would be a loose ball foul. A rebounding situation is the most common type of "loose ball foul."

I assume you mean "most points scored in the final game of a championship SERIES".\n\nBaylor's 61 points was not in the final game of the championship series in 1962...I believe it was in Game 5 when he did that... the Lakers took a 3-2 lead after that game, but Boston came back and won games 6 and 7... Bill Russell scored 30 pts and pulled down 40 rebounds in game 7, a 110-107 Celtic victory.\n\nJordan's 63 point playoff game was a first round game against the Celtics in 1986... the Bulls lost that game in double overtime.\n\nMagic Johnson scored 42 pts in game 6 of the 1980 NBA finals (his rookie year)... That might be a record for pts scored in a final game of a championship (it was the final game of the championship series, even though it was only game 6...the Lakers won the series 4-2).\n\nI believe the record for pts scored in a Game 7 is 47 by Sam Jones of the Celtics (teammate of Russell). But that did not occur in the Championship Series, it occurred in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals in 1962.\n\nOff the top of my head, I would guess that Magic holds this record, but I could be missing somebody.

Boxing out - To place your body between the hoop and an opponent to facilitate rebounding.\n\nPick and roll - To stand still while a team mate "scrapes" his defender by leading him into you, then you move toward the hoop anticipating a pass from your team mate.\n\nhere are some more:\nhttp://www.americanheart.org/presenter.jhtml?identifier=3014786\nhttp://library.thinkquest.org/CR0215404/basterms.htm\nhttp://www.firstbasesports.com/basketball_glossary.html

when talking about basketball, a rebound is when a player jumps and catches the ball...if he does that while his team is attacking, than it is regarded as a offensive rebound....if he does that while his team is defending, than it is called defensive rebound...hope it helps
