So what's the metric equivalent of a ten second violation? How about a double dribble? How much is a three point shot worth in metrics?

A) 8 sec violation
B) Does anybody even call double dribble anymore, eh?
C) Points aren't an imperial/metric unit of measure so they are the same but we do move the 3 pt line back further to balance it out.

Have a great day, eh!
