Chapter 55 Rule Differences
"Shut up! This time the opponent is not a schoolmate, this time they are people from the society. You can sign up when you are 18 years old. The physical condition is different from the school!" Wang Boyu reminded me earnestly.

"Really? Is the confrontation fierce? I like the fierce confrontation best! It's so cool~! I can't wait to participate. Most of the students in the school will fly as soon as they collide. They can crazily collide with the society and communicate with their muscles!"

In the end, Wang Bo and I didn't discuss who to bring. The main candidates were Ahuang, Dayu and Songsong. Wang Kai was excluded because he was in the same position as me.

I personally prefer Ah Huang, mainly because of his strong scoring ability; Wang Bo prefers Dayu, thinking that he needs an inside player who can be guaranteed on both offense and defense.In the end we decided to discuss with Zhang Jian.

There was no training on the second day, Zhang Jian asked us out in the afternoon to discuss the rules of the game.He took out three densely typed A4 papers, on which was written in large letters: "Flying Cup [-]v[-] Basketball Competition Rules."

"Why are there so many words? How can I read them all!" Seeing a lot of dense technical terms, I felt a headache and didn't know where to start.

"There's a lot of content. I've already drawn the key points. You can just read the rules of the drawing." It seems that Zhang Jian has put in a lot of effort for the competition.

"Just tell us if it's okay, so you don't have to read it again!" I showed shameless laziness to Zhang Jian.

"..., that's okay! To sum it up, there are mainly a few points: The first point is that the size of the three-on-three game is relatively small. Compared with the regular full-court basketball court, the size of the three-on-three court is slightly smaller. There is a place similar to the three-second zone. The so-called three-point line in the three-on-three game is called the arc circle, which is closer to the basket."

"The second point is that the attack time is shorter, each attack is 12 seconds; the third point is the arc circle similar to the three-point line just mentioned. A score inside the circle counts as one point, and a score outside the circle counts as two points!"

"Is that three points?" I raised my hand and asked Mr. Zhang Jian.

"There are no three points in three ones and three competitions, and the scores are scored up to two points, that is, two points scored two points outside the arc coil," Zhang Jian continued. "The fourth point is that the team has a cumulative fouls of more than 6 times. From the seventh foul, each time is two free throws, so we try not to foul. Because there is only one substitute player, once the player is injured, the team will be injured. No one can be replaced, so the three pairs of three competitions have a great penalty for fouls. The heavy penalties are also to ensure the smoothness and continuity of the game. "

"Don't worry! I don't like fouls, I mainly rely on offense to become the focus of attention!" I couldn't help but pick up Zhang Jian's words.

"Can you talk less and let Zhang Jian finish," Wang Bo interrupted me and glared at me fiercely, so I had no choice but to shut up decisively and prepare to remain silent.

"I just talked about the strict penalties for fouls. Next, I will talk about the game time and winning conditions: the game time is only 10 minutes, and the clock does not stop in the middle. That is to say, after the offensive team scores a shot, the defensive team immediately takes the ball outside the arc to switch offense and defense. At this time, the referee does not stop the watch, serve, blow the whistle, etc. This is for the smooth rhythm of the game. Whoever scores 10 points first within 21 minutes wins.

"It's not like we usually catch the wave and play wild ball. After scoring the goal, the other team immediately goes to the three-pointer to organize the offensive and defensive transition, without waiting for the referee to serve." I couldn't help but comment again.

"It is indeed the same as receiving waves. For example, when team A scores, team B can decisively take the ball out of the circle, organize team B's offense, and quickly realize the offensive and defensive transition; if team A fails to score a goal, team B also needs to get out of the circle to launch an attack." Zhang Jian introduced the rules to us through examples.

"What if the two sides draw a tie within 10 minutes? For example, a tie at 16:16." I asked again.

"According to the rules, the sudden death method is adopted. The side that serves first in the game will attack. Whoever gets two points first wins!"

"Then who will serve first?" Wang Bo couldn't help asking.

"The game said that the referee is a coin to determine the opening ball, and there is no opening jump ball."

"Is there a pause?" I asked again, and the whole conversation became a guide course for Mr. Zhang Jian's Q&A.

"The rules say that each team has a short 30-second timeout. Substitutions can only be made when the ball goes out of bounds or someone fouls and enters the dead ball. When making a substitution, there is no need to signal to the referee. The two sides on and off the field directly clap each other to complete the substitution."

Zhang Jianzai looked through the details of the rules carefully, and finally confirmed: "Basically that's all, I'm done."

Zhang Jian watched me and Wang Bo staring at him with dull eyes, knowing that the three-on-three rule is too much and we need time to digest it.

He had no choice but to continue to summarize: "Consolidate the key points again, that is, in the 10 minutes of the game, whoever scores 21 points first wins; three players are on the bench, one person is on the bench, and the clock is not stopped in the middle; a goal inside the arc circle gets one point, and a goal outside the arc circle gets two points! It's over!"

"The summary is so sharp! You have everyone's demeanor! Are you the monitor?" I was surprised and sincerely admired Zhang Jian's summary so concisely.

"I'm not the monitor."

"That's the study committee member, at least the representative of the English class, or the representative of the physics class, or the representative of the history class?"

"...Brother Tianyu, do you think this is a high school? There is no class representative in the university. Don't say these are useless! There is another key issue," Zhang Jian changed the subject to the issue I discussed with Wang Bo yesterday, "Apart from the three of us, who else is invited to form a team?"

"I also discussed with Wang Bo for a while yesterday, but we didn't reach a consensus. My opinion is to call Ah Huang. You know that Ah Huang is accurate in mid-range shooting, decisive in breaking through, and has baskets outside the three-point line. With him on our team, the offense will be much better. Besides, Ah Huang and I have a tacit understanding of passing. My breakthrough points and his open shots can be perfectly combined."

"Tianyu's opinion is Ah Huang, but I think we still need an inside player. Both Songsong and Dayu are fine! Because in terms of offense, Tianyu must be the main player for the team. In a 10-minute game, Tianyu can play from start to finish physically, without changing players in the middle. This should be no problem. Since our tactic is to give most of the offensive power to Tianyu, we need a defensive inside player, such as Dayu who is excellent in offense and defense, or Songsong who is famous for defense. My opinion. Team Zhang, what's your opinion?"

"Hmm~! I think what you said is very reasonable. If Ah Huang is allowed to participate, we will be in a situation where we have no insiders at all. This competition is a city-wide competition. People from all walks of life in the society will form teams to participate. Their physical conditions must be better than their school classmates!" Zhang Jian also expressed his thoughts.
