NBO Rules
SCORING
Games are played 2-on-2
full-court to 100 by 1‘s, 2’s, 3’s, and 8’s, on 7.5’ rims with a mini-ball
1 pointer: any shot
made inside of half-court.
2 pointer:
any shot made between half-court and ¾ court.
3 pointer:
any shot made between ¾ court and full-court.
8 pointer: the shot
on the tip-off while in air.
Double-shots and
double-dunks:
Any shot/dunk where
the ball initially goes in the hoop and catches on the net to flip around back
into the hoop again is worth double points for the shot taken.
Goal Tending
Only allowed as long
as you do not intentionally touch the rim/net or put your hand up through the
rim. Fixing the net by tying a knot in it to prevent double dunks is also illegal.
