    What is the Paint in Basketball?

    * What is the paint in basketball? * This question is more like in the lines of what is the force in basketball. It is not a secret that in basketball the players are supposed to be painted and not the ball, but it is there not to make you look good, it is there to make the players follow the rules and respect the game. So to be more precise, basketball is played with an orange colored ball and not the orange paint. Coaches and players are there to guide and take care of the players, not to paint them.

    The "paint" is the area inside the lane lines from the baseline to the free-throw line. If your offensive player has a foot on, or inside these lines for 3 seconds or longer, he will be called for the 3-second violation. There is no restriction on the time defensive players can occupy the paint.
