The Basketball is a free physics game. Get ready to slam, jam, and carefully obey the laws of physics in the most sensational basketball showdown we've ever published. In this game, you won't be up against Shaq, Kobe, Jordan, or Byrd, but something much more harrowing. In this basketball game, you'll shoot through a series of obstacles that do not let up. Whether it is mystical portals that teleport the ball, sliding platforms, steel spikes, or concrete walls, this game is the ultimate challenge to your B-ball skills. Physics is the game's name; it is all you'll have as you shoot, bounce, rebound, teleport, dodge, and swish your way to the top of the leaderboard. All you have to do is use your mouse to click, hold and drag. You'll see a dotted line that represents your ball's arc. You aim to launch the ball where you think it is most likely to bounce into the hoop. Remember, you'll be up against all sorts of barriers and obstacles. You'll sometimes have to use those obstacles to your advantage, like the teleportation portal or the sliding platforms.
