Basketball rules: can u talk to opposition while they have the ball?
925277
talking is fine and allowed regardless of the subject but talking to the opponent is allowed to a certain degree.... in the nba especially you are no longer allowed to "trash talk" or taunt the opponent or else you will be given a technical foul. it is at the discretion of the ref to make a call so it may also depend on what is said. even your actions can be seen as taunting....but your example is with in the rules.

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.

The object is to get the ball in the other team's net to score one point.\n\nYou can hit the ball with any part of your body EXCEPT your arms/hands/shoulders.\n\nYou can't rough up the other players - that is a foul.\nYou can't step outside the boundaries - that is a foul.\nFouls are penalized by awarding the ball to the other team.\n\nThose are the basics. The details and nuances of the game can go on for pages - there are entire books written on the subject.

If you "push" you give the option to your opponent....should you pocket the object ball he gets to pick if he wants the shot from where it finished.....good time for a "push" as you described it......leave a shot but a hard one to make it hard for him to run out.....and at the same time something that you can do something with it in case he gives it back to you......remember that you can call a push and pocket a ball.....under the same situation you described....assume that the "9" is hanging in the pocket.....if you miss he might get ball in hand and win the game on one shot.......maybe you should call a "push" knock in the 9 or knock it away from the pocket but leaving a hard shot on the object ball.........also call "push" and shoot in a ball any ball and see if by chance the opponent thinks that you "foul" and then picks up the ball....all the time thinking that you had "fouled".....he has not "fouled" by picking it up......if they are not focused and this might work every once in a while.....good luck on the tour!!........by the way should you not know the 9 would get spotted if you make it on this push..

Play a give-ngo play, really simple. You start with a normal 1 man on top 2 wings and 2 posts. The 2 posts constantly give screens to anyone cutting. Whoever passes a ball runs in and uses the screen to find an open spot, like the corner for a shot, player who didnt get the ball comes closer to make sure him and the ball is one pass away, and strong side post seals D and is open then opposite post can flash up to high post for a pass fake drive of a shot if he has range if none of those open, another pass to another guard and passer does the cutting again and posts screen again and its continuous motion till you find an open shot.

I think you should learn how to get your teammates involved. I know making buzzer beaters and shooting three pointers out of now where are cool but If you wanna win a title and get your name out there you need to learn on how to get your team to make more points and score ALOT. Maybe even more than you. Be there for your team but more importantly let your team be there for you.

the only time you can legally do that is when the defender knocks the ball out of your hands.  Then you are allowed to recover it and start dribbling again.  Any other time it is a double dribble

If your opponent hits your ball first it would be a foul , ball in hand for you. There would be no second shot.

You can swat the ball away if it's still making "upward progress" toward the basket. If it's coming down, swatting it away is goaltending. Just don't foul the shooter.

As a coach, I love it during tryouts when players do as they are instructed.   So PAY ATTENTION.   I also love it when players hustle to and from water breaks.   If they tell you to call the ball (mine!!!!) make sure you say it loudly - volleyball is all about communication and whispering doesnt' cut it!   Be happy to be there - don't chit chat with friends while waiting in line - be on time.......HAVE FUN!

Very simply--there has to be two defenders between you and the goal unless you are behind the ball. The timing is when the ball is played by one of your team mates.
