How to understand the “rock” in basketball?
Rock is a slang used to describe ball, as in “shoot the rock” or “pass the rock”. Saying the rock is equivalent to saying the ball in most cases. The ball is an orange round ball that is made from leather or rubber, depending on whether the ball is for indoor or outdoor basketball. The rock is a term to describe different basketball actions used by many including players, announcers, and fans. The rock is essential to any basketball game, because the ball is the most vital part of basketball. Without a ‘rock’, you can’t play basketball.
Here are some basic examples of the term used in commentary:
- Harden passed the rock to Westbrook.
- Griffin tells Paul that it’s crucial he protects the rock in the final minute.
- James tosses the rock down court to Wade who finishes with an easy dunk.
- Durant drives the rock to the basket and finishes.
