The game of basketball is simple: put the ball through the basket more times than the other team. With such a simple game comes extremely complex rules. And with so many rules come so many official terms every fan must learn in order to enjoy the game. And there's trash talk, which is as old as the game itself. Unlike other sports, basketball players are in each other's faces without helmets for the entire game, so back and forth banter is only expected. With all the trash talk comes a dictionary of slang, plus all the official terminology, that creates a glossary of lingo that is essential to the game.
It's almost impossible to follow a basketball game without knowing the lingo. It's even more difficult to play. How can you shoot a shot from the parking lot? Where is the block? What is the key? And when's the best time to kill the clock? This quiz won't be a layup or a free throw, but if you're an avid fan, it could be a slam dunk. You have to start somewhere, and you have to take baby steps before you become a high flyer, so let's see how much you know about NBA lingo.
How much do you know about dinosaurs? What is an octane rating? And how do you use a proper noun? Lucky for you, HowStuffWorks Play is here to help.
