3. A point guard's job is to create
scoring opportunities for his
team, or sometimes attack to
the basket. They have to
setting up plays on the
court, getting the ball to the
teammate in the best position
to score, and controlling the
time of the game. A point
guard should know when and
how to start a fast break. A
point guard needs always to
have in mind the times on the
shot clock and the game
clock, the score, etc.

4. Shooting guards are taller
than point guards. They
should be good ball handlers
and be able to pass reasonably
well, though passing is not
their main priority. They are
frequently the team's back-up
ball handlers to the point
guard and typically get a fair
number of assists. They must
be able to score in various
ways, especially late in a close
game when defenses are
tighter. They need to have a
good free throw percentage
too and to be reliable in close
games.

5. Small forwards are typically
someone
shorter, quicker, and leaner
than power forwards and
centers, but on occasion are
just as tall. The small
forward position is
considered to be perhaps
the most versatile of the five

6. Power forwards play a
role similar to that of
center in what is called
the "post" or "low
blocks". They typically
play offensively with
their backs towards the
basket and position
themselves defensively
under the basket in a
zone defense or against
the opposing power
forward. Many power
forwards are noted for
their mid-range jump-
shot.

7. The center is normally the tallest
player on the team. In many
cases, the center's primary role
is to use his or her size to score
and defend from a position close
to the basket. A center who
possesses size along with
athleticism and skill constitutes
an unparalleled asset for a team.
They are also generally the
players who are chosen to take
jump balls. It should also be
noted that centers and power
forwards often have relatively
low free throw percentages.

8. First of all, you have to hold
the ball with the hand that
you write and your arm in
an angle of 90º. After that
you have to put your other
arm in the ball next to the
other like a “T”. Next you
have to bend your legs to
impulse you to throw the
ball. Finally you have to
stretch your legs and your
arms to shoot to the
basket.

9. In basketball, a personal
foul is a breach of the rules
that concerns illegal
personal contact with an
opponent. It is the most
common type of foul in
basketball. When a player
exceeds their personal foul
limit (5 fouls), for a
game, this player is
disqualified from
participation in the
