Historic Rule Changes
Sunday, 27 April 2008

The FIBA Central Board, the highest executive body of the International Basketball Federation, met on Friday 25th April, and has continued its session yesterday, Saturday 26th April, in Beijing, China. The meeting has been organized in cooperation with the Chinese Basketball Association.

An additional press release containing several important decisions of the FIBA Central Board will be issued in the next hours. However, this morning the Central Board has taken some major and historic decisions as with regards to the game rules.

Indeed, upon recommendation of the FIBA Technical Commission (a group of experts that deal with the game rules), the FIBA Central Board has approved today several amendments to the Official Basketball Rules.

The recommendations by the FIBA Technical Commission and the decisions taken by the Central Board were strived by the attempt to further unify all existing game rules and to have, in the future, only one set of rules for the game of basketball worldwide.

Please find below a summary of all approved rule changes, which include historic amendments like the extension of the 3-point line (in place since 1984) and the change of the trapezoid restricted area (in place since the 1950s) to a rectangular one:

Transformed Data in the Forum
Friday, 14 December 2007

Analyzing a Basketball Game with Transformed Data
"... As we studied at the eBA Basketball Statistics Clinic ONLINE, sometimes, we transform data from a basketball game analysis, for example, to make fit the number of turnovers from one team to the steal of the other in relation to the total of possessions adding it to the Statistics of the "team player".
