This picture only represents one moment in a number of moments that are needed to define the entire play. It does not tell us how and when the two players got to the places on the court that they are occupying in the picture. The pictures really tells us nothing about the entire play.

Sure it does. It's obvious the offensive player has lost his contact lens and it has fallen on the knee of the defensive player.

Lighten up Francis, (borrowed that from Stripes), it was just a picture I found and thought people might enjoy seeing it, you don't often see a guys head and shoulder in that position....

Conjoined twins Shu-Ping and Sui-Hei Phong will travel from mainland China to Chicago to undergo a grueling operation to separate them. The boys, 15, hope to recover in time to finish the season with their high school basketball team, the Beiging Ducks. Said Sui-Hei: "I'm looking forward to not having to play point guard anymore, I see myself more as a forward or center. Like LeBron." Shu-ping was equally happy, saying "I'm looking forward to developing my skills as a ball handler. Alan Iverson is my hero".

The question for me is how Sui-Hei gets his jersey on properly with Shu-ping's head joined to his sternum. Maybe it's velcro down the front with a little hole in the middle. . .

And how they manage to keep up a practice schedule when they are on two different teams!

If you read a little further in the article , it states that they're on the same team. They were simply playing on opposite squads during practice.
