Welcome back to the "Light Side", on behalf of all the kids who play hoop, you're needed now more than ever. In addition to the well- cited rules herein posted, you'll also see how the game is " managed" now as compared to back then: there's more of an expectation to enforce good sportsmanship, the principle of verticality is explicitly expected to be extended to the defender also who has the "right to act" within their respective floor to ceiling cylinder, and overall players have become better, craftier, and coaches are using more off-ball screens and slip screens so there's more of a premium set on off-ball officiating; also they're running lots of drive and kick/dish actions that result in open shots (long twos or a three) so there's emphasis on getting a good look at all related actions.
