Basketball 2.0

Basketball, but points are scored by throwing the ball up through the hoop.

You can use your feet to manipulate the ball.

Points:
1 point if the ball comes back down and hits the rim or backboard.
2 points if the ball falls back down and hits the floor within the free through rectangle.
3 points if the ball falls back down and hits the floor outside of the free through rectangle and inside the 3-point line.
5 points if the ball falls back down and hits the floor outside of the 3-point line.
If any of those shots are made by bouncing the ball off the floor, then thought the bottom of the hoop, the point value is doubled for every landing zone.

If a player on the enemy team catches the ball after it has a been launched though the hoop, the shooting team gets only 1 point, as if the ball had hit the hoop or backboard.
If a player on the shooting team interferes with the ball's fall after being launched through the hoop, no point is scored.

On defense, any measure up to pushing is legal. Any defensive action that causes another player to fall is considered illegal, unless the referee can reasonably determine that the defensive action should not have been forceful enough to knock the player down. Lowering one's shoulder and charging another player is illegal.
