	Jump ball - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A jump ball is a method used to begin or resume play in basketball.
		In the NBA, a jump ball occurs at the start of the game (called the opening tip), the start of each period and extra period, to settle special situations where penalties cancel out and neither team is previously entitled to the ball, to settle any held balls.
		Whenever such a jump ball situation occurs, the team whose opponents' basket that the possession arrow is currently pointing to gets the ball.

		The best way I was taught Jump to the Ball Defense was the idea to think that you are chained to the ball and where ever the ball goes you have to jump to the ball.
		Or Help that means the ball is on the side of the court and you in the middle of the court which most coaches want you under the basketball if your low or if your up then at least in the middle of the court while calling out help.
		Jump to the ball defense is nothing new, but it's a good to learn early in your years of playing.

	Sports: Defensive jump ball not popular among coaches
		All you have to do is grab the ball and tie it up and you really didn't create any defensive (turnover), there was no defensive skill in it.
		Even on the jump ball at the beginning of the game, (players) get the ball going up half of the time, (players) get into the circle, and all that.
		It's just that the offensive team has got the ball and they are trying to score and the defense, really for doing nothing, is getting to shoot a free throw at the other end.

		A rule change in 1930 called for a jump ball to take place, according to the NCAA, "when a closely guarded player is withholding the ball from play for five seconds." In that era, a jump ball followed every basket, a practice that was eliminated in 1937.
		In 1981, just five years after the dunk was made legal again, the decision was made to limit jump balls to the start of the game and the beginning of each overtime period.
		One coach said he was eager to see the jump ball replace the arrow so he could teach his players how to gain possession unfairly.

	The Official Forum - block = jump ball?
		If a defender has one hand on the ball and the ball is not on the floor, the ball can be easily moved away from the defender's hand without undue roughness.
		The intent of the rule is to call a held ball when two opposing players have enough equal control of the ball that their opposite number is unable to do anything with it(dribble,pass,shoot,etc.).That's how we judge it,and that's how we call it.
		I don't agree that pushing a ball downward when the shooter is on the floor constitutes a held ball unless both players decide to remain pushing the ball in opposite directions.

		A jump ball ends once one or more of the following happen: ball touches floor, non-jumping player touches ball, ball touches backboard, ball is tapped at least twice by one (or both) of the jumpers.
		The ball being put at the disposal of Team B is the first Team control for purposes of setting the initial AP arrow direction.
		My question is would you walk down to the other end and give them the ball there where they would have to go the length of the court, or would you let them take the ball out under their own basket.

		One of Naismith's final decisions before the first game was whether to use a soccer ball or rugby ball and it obviously would not have been possible to dribble an oblong ball.
		The early innovators realized the way around the rule banning running was to temporarily lose possession of the ball, so they would roll it or bounce it on the floor.
