	World Almanac for Kids
		The regulation basketball is an inflated, leather- or nylon-covered sphere that weighs from 20 to 22 oz (567 to 624 g) and has a circumference of 30 in.
		Basketball rules have changed over the years with the intent of speeding its action, increasing the scoring, and offsetting the advantages given to teams with extremely tall players.
		Also essential in basketball is the pick, or screen, whereby players position themselves (set a pick) so as to impede the movement of a defensive player, thus freeing a teammate for a clear shot at the basket.

	Center (basketball) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The center is normally the tallest player on the team, and they are generally preferred to have a great deal of muscle and body mass as well.
		Shaquille O'Neal of the Miami Heat is noted both for his enormous proportions, standing 7 ft 1 in (2.16 m) tall and weighing 330 lb (150 kg), as well for his mastery of elegantly simple post maneuvers.
		There has been occasional controversy over what constitutes a "true center." Some have argued, for instance, that Ben Wallace, while highly effective at center, is actually a power forward playing out of position, mainly because his 6'9" (2.06 m) height makes him considerably smaller than most centers he faces.

		All the defensive players are on the field at once, while the offensive players come to bat one at a time.
		A substitute player fills the same spot in the order as the player he replaced (however, he is not required to play the same position on defense).
		Both football and basketball use a clock, and fans must often watch games end while one team degrades the competitive element of the game by "killing the clock" rather than competing directly against the opposing team.

		SAN ANTONIO -- As David Robinson strolled to the dais, an obviously amused Tim Duncan eyed the gold suit his teammate was wearing, shook his head smiling and headed out the door of the SBC Center.
		Both players responded well on weak-side defense to the backcuts that are the heart of the Nets' half-court offense, and point guard Tony Parker shrugged off a jittery first half, as the Spurs broke open a close game in the third quarter and led by double-figures for the final 16 minutes of the game.
		Robinson played well with nine points and six rebounds before intermission, which fittingly ended with the two teams deadlocked at 42.
