Basketball

Question number one.

Which NBA team is named

after a type of

dinosaur?

Okay,

an NBA team named after a dinosaur.

Um, the T-Rexes,

Stegosauruses?

No, that doesn't seem right.

I don't know.

Other

dinosaurs

are there?

Well, I don't.

I can't

think of any other dinosaur names that would be good basketball teams.

Raptors,

I don't know where they're from though.

Pittsburgh

Raptors.

You are incorrect.

Yikes.

All right.

Question number two.

Who

was

nicknamed

His Airness?

His

airness?

Yeah,

like his

highness, but

his

airness.

I mean,

this is

me being an Australian.

I don't really know

my basketball too well.

I'm going to

guess it's Michael Jordan

because he was just known for.

Being in the air a lot, lots of hang time in the air.

He had his Air

Jordans,

so I'm going to say Michael Jordan.

That is correct.

Thank you.

Yes,

nice.

Already.

Question number three:

What is the official height of an NBA

basketball hoop

from the floor?

Okay, so the official height is.

Boy, I don't know this.

I'm guessing

it's

going to be

nine foot,

nine foot, ten foot,

nine

foot.

I'm gonna say is

it nine and a half?

Is it?

Can you give me a clue?

Is it like a round number or is it like a

point something?

No, it's a round number.

It's a round

number.

Okay,

so it's like nine, ten, eleven.

Yeah, one of those.

Okay.

Um,

I'm gonna say it's nine foot.

So

close!

Oh, really?

Ten foot.

Ten

foot.

Ten

beautiful feet.

Ten beautiful feet

in the

air.

That's a long.

That's a

long way up to

reach

to dunk,

isn't it?

Yeah.

Like

to get that.

Gotta be pretty tall.

Gotta be pretty tall.

Do you think you'll ever be a

basketball player, Lovella?

No, I'm real short for a basketball player.

I'm.

I'm.

I'm like

five.

One

half, and

I'm

probably not

growing.

You're only

thirteen years.

You've still got a yeah,

but

I'm.

I

kind of doubt I'm.

I'm probably this height forever.

So

we'll see.

So not you're

putting aside your

WNBA career.

Yeah,

that's

happen.

Sadly, all the way down at the

bottom of the list.

Is it?

It's really looking forward to that one.

Were you?

Yeah,

I wanted to be the

next.

Annis,

I wanted to be her

Anis.

Her Anis, gotcha.

Nice,

you know.

All right,

last

question.

Here we go.

Which

NBA team

won six championships

during the 1990s?

Okay,

six

championships in the 1990s.

This is when

I was

probably,

you know, I wasn't watching

basketball

in

Australia, but you know, I was hearing about it a bit more.

Probably

across it a bit more than I am now.

I would say that that's

got to be the Chicago Bulls because that's when Michael

Jordan was

at his peak

in the 90s.

So I'm going to say Chicago

Bulls.

You

are.

Correct.

Yes.

Good job.

Thank

you.

So that is

two correct.

So that wasn't too bad.

Yeah.

Nice job.

All right,

kids.

I'm

scared.

Get your Air Jordans on.

It's time

to go out into the second half.

All right, kids.

Basketball

trivia

for you.

I'm

ready.

All right.

Here we go.

Question number one.

How many players

from each team are on the court at one time

in an NBA game?

What do you think?

I'm

thinking

it's like

how many?

How many

can you imagine them on the on a basketball?

I have you been to a basketball match

before?

Your friend plays.

Your friends

play basketball.

I've been to like

two.

I'm not really paying

attention.

How many were on the

field?

Um,

I'm gonna

say.

There's like four to six, so I have to obviously narrow it

down.

Four to six, yeah.

You need to give me

more

than

a general range.

I need one number.

I'm

just gonna say

five.

Five?

Yeah, I'm gonna

go with five.

Right in the middle of your

your range.

Yeah,

feels like a

good number to go with.

so.

You are correct.

Yes,

five players.

Phew.

At any one time.

Well done.

All right.

Don't

think so.

Jordan, Steph Curry.

Any other basketball players that you've heard of?

No.

who

they tragically

died in that helicopter accident.

Yeah, very

sad.

But there's a nice

statue, statue of both

Oh,

Well,

I don't keep track of how many games Taylor Swift goes.

Yes,

you do.

I really don't actually.

You used to.

You used to keep track of where Taylor Swift was

whenever you could.

Not

anymore.

Moved on from her, haven't you?

Technically, Swifties keep track of that.

Yeah.

All right.

Whatever.

I was

going to say

originally the New York Giants, but I forgot that they were a baseball team, so I didn't.

They're not.

They're a.

Oh,

never mind.

They're a football team.

Never mind.

I didn't even know who the New York

Giants are.

Okay, so how did you do?

You ready?

Yes.

Okay.

Question

number four.

How many seconds does an

NBA team

normally have

to attempt a

shot?

So it's typically called the shot

clock.

It starts as soon

as they get the ball, and they

have

means that they can't just like bounce it around

and

draw back the time.

They have to take a shot within

a certain

amount of time.

How many seconds?

Thirty

seconds.

Oh, good

guess.

Thirty seconds.

I'm just gonna say that.

I'm probably wrong.

You are wrong, but you're very

close.

Twenty

four

seconds.

Twenty

four

is so

specific.

Why not

round it up to twenty five?

Round

it down

to twenty.

I don't know

where it came from.

I guess they worked out that twenty four seconds was.

Was the

appropriate time to give them

to

pass the ball around?

Okay,

all right.

So one point for you in

basketball.

That's

like a free throw.

That's all you've got.

One free throw.

Yeah, but you didn't do much better, Dan.

I mean, you only got two.

That's

true.

So

I got a

I got a dunk, a slam dunk.

Sure.

All right.

Well, let's

move into our bonus round, shall we?

Cool.

And we'll

see if we can

figure out who wins this episode.

Yes.

Okay, so

there's one question.

First to buzz in and get the correct answer wins two points for your team.

But if you buzz in and get the incorrect

answer,

then

that means

the points go to the other team.

Ooh.

Okay.

All right.

So only buzzing if you know

the answer.

Yes.

All right.

Cool.
