“…These contrasting results were found in other previous studies that seem to be all on female players [11,48]. Moreover, these demands could be influenced according to the match status, with different paces and strategies [25], which translates into different activity levels according to the team's needs. For example, in the last quarter, winning teams want to control the ball to avoid quick transitions and score easily [19].…”

“…Accumulated point differences of each period. Related to the accumulated difference of points at the end of each quarter, three groups were created by a k-means clustering algorithm that considered all results in the six matches registered following previous research in basketball [17,[25][26][27]: (a) score differences equal to or below nine points (close games, n = 77), (b) score differences between 15 and 29 points (balanced games, n = 77) and score differences above 30 points (unbalanced games, n = 25).…”

Currently, most basketball research is focused on professional and elite players. Studies at the amateur level are important to explain the physical and technical demands of competition and thus improve players’ and teams’ performance. The purpose of the present study was to describe the competitive demands of an amateur-level basketball team and to analyze the influence of different situational variables on the physical and technical performance indicators. Eleven amateur senior basketball players participated in six official final-round games during the 2018/2019 season. External, internal load, and notational analysis were registered by inertial devices, heart rate bands, and video analysis. The Kruskal-Wallis H-test was applied for comparisons based on playing positions, periods, and final quarter game outcome, with the post hoc comparison accomplished by a Mann-Whitney U test. The Spearman correlation coefficient was realized for the relational analysis. The results showed that: (a) guards covered more volume of displacements (effective on-court time: p < 0.01, E R 2 = 0.05; steps/min: p < 0.01, E R 2 = 0.28) and the centers performed competitive actions of higher load ([>8G] Imp/min: p < 0.01, E R 2 = 0.20; jumps/min: p < 0.01, E R 2 = 0.33); (b) a performance decreasing was found between the first and second half of the game; (c) in balanced matches there was the most individual technical performance (PIR/min: p < 0.98, E R 2 = 0.01), while in the unbalanced games more high-intensity impacts were seen ([>8G] Imp/min: p < 0.01, E R 2 = 0.07). The situational variables analyzed had an influence on athletic performance in amateur senior basketball players and should be considered for designing training sessions and planning strategies during official matches.

“…These contrasting results were found in other previous studies, that seem to be all on female players (Matthew and Delextrat, 2009; Scanlan et al, 2012). Our study showed a decrease in all time-motion variables recorded with significant differences in RD, HIR and PL, from the first to the last quarter that could be associated to players’ fatigue due to the high competitiveness, but it could also reflect their pacing strategies and strategic decisions by coaches (increased time-outs and free-throws) (García-Rubio et al, 2015).…”

“…If defensive players tried to occupy a space near the rim in the attacker’s trajectory in order to achieve an offensive foul, the contact would be violent and cause an injury. All of these modifications have caused changes in coaches’ strategies and tactics, as they design their training sessions according to the new regulations and the possible scenarios which might occur during games ( García-Rubio et al, 2015 ).…”

Rule modifications in basketball are used to develop the sport, and FIBA changes the basketball regulations periodically and constantly in search of a more attractive game. The objectives of this study were as follows: i) to characterise and identify the technical-tactical performance indicators which discriminated the game style according to the effect of rule modifications; and ii) to analyse the persistence of these indicators according to rule modifications over time. Analyses were made of all the editions of the current competition system of the Copa Del Rey in Spanish basketball. One hundred and forty matches were analysed, starting from the 1995-96 to the 2014-15 season. Data were gathered from the official competition web page (www.acb.com) The variables analysed included rule modifications, the number of ball possessions, points scored, one, two and 3-point field goals made and attempted, total rebounds, defensive and offensive rebounds, assists, steals, turnovers, blocked shots, dunks and committed and received personal fouls, score differences, as well as one, two and 3-point field-goal percentages. Several analyses were carried out: descriptive analysis to characterise the sample; ANOVA to identify differences between periods; discriminant analysis to determine technical-tactical performance indicators which best discriminated between each competition term and rule change period; and finally autocorrelation function and cross-correlation were used to estimate the persistency of performance indicators over time. Results show that rule changes affect the way basketball is played. Nevertheless, players and coaches are the ones who determine functional behavior in basketball.
