In FIBA, guards can only dribble down the left-hand side?

In fact, their team wears white flag patches.

Except for those whose families fought in the resistance. Face it - those guys (and gals) deserve respect - not kidding.

Actually it's called "pallacanestro", I agree it's not the fanciest possible name. But at least we know how to cook spaghetti.

Three Sets Of Rules ...
We have an official on our local IAABO high school board who officiates high school (NFHS), NCAA Division I Men (NCAAM), and international basketball (FIBA). He was recently selected to officiate at the Summer Olympics in China. I don't know how he keeps the three sets of rules straight in his mind from game to game?

Ditto. Does Fed for HS, NCAAM rules for CIS men's games, and has been a FIBA official for 8 years now. About 6 years ago he received a look from the NBA, but he didn't make it past the first invitational camp. He still has the 2 NBA referee jerseys though. Pretty cool.
