How easy do you think it'll be to bluff being good at basketball?


I've never played before - my basic understanding of the game comes from seeing random snippets on tv. (And not broadcast games on tv; I'm talking about characters in other tv shows who happen to be watching basketball.)

I have, however, played netball. Badly. And I figure "playing netball badly" is pretty much the definition of playing basketball, so...


I went along to watch a game this evening - for the team I will be playing with next week. It looked fairly easy, but I still haven't figured out all the different fouls or how they work. Hopefully Wikipedia will have some answers for me.

Pretend to trip and sprain your ankle about a minute in and you'll be just fine.
