Basketball Fans Are Getting Something New At The 2020 Summer Olympics

Score within regular play from within the three-point line and you're awarded two points. Score from beyond the three-point line and you're awarded three. Baskets made from the [ free-throw line] following a foul are worth one point. Games are divided up into four 10-minute quarters for 40 total minutes of play.

Rosie Yang/Unsplash For the five-on-five tournament, the 12 participating teams (12 each for the men and the women) will be divided up into three groups (A, B and C) of four players. During this group phase, each team plays every other team in its group, for a total of three games. The top two teams from each group, as well as the two best third-placed teams, move onto the final phase. In order to determine the pairings for the next round -- and avoid the same teams playing each other again -- a random drawing will take place with the top four teams in one pot and the rest in a second pot. The final result is a knockout-style bracket format, in which teams must win to move on. In the end, in order to earn a gold medal, a team will have had to play six games, instead of eight as in past Olympic tournaments. Men's Olympic qualification As host country, Japan is given automatic entry. The remaining 11 teams will have to qualify at select tournaments, starting with the International Basketball Federation (more commonly known by the French acronym FIBA) [ World Cup], which runs Aug. 31-Sept. 15. At this tournament, the top two teams from the Americas, the top two teams from Europe, and the top teams from Africa, Asia and Oceania will qualify for Tokyo. The 16 next-best teams, plus two selected teams per region, will then be invited to play in one of four FIBA qualifying tournaments in 2020. The winning team from each of those tournaments will qualify for Tokyo. The US men's national team -- which has featured NBA standouts like Michael Jordan, LeBron James and Kevin Durant -- have won 15 of the 18 Olympic Games in which they've participated, including handily beating Serbia 96-66 at Rio in 2016.

Competition for the remaining 10 spots kicks off this November with the first round of qualifying tournaments.

But European contenders like Spain, Serbia and France, as well as Australia -- which medaled in five of the last six Olympic Games -- will be looking to pull off an upset. Three-on-three basketball at the 2020 Summer Olympics For years, three-on-three basketball has been a popular format worldwide, but 2020 will be the first time it makes an appearance at the Olympics. The rules are similar to the standard five-on-five game, with a few notable differences. First, teams are composed of four players: three on-court athletes and one substitute. Second, they play on half a court using only one basket. Shots made from behind the typical three-point line are worth only two points; all other shots are worth one. The first team to 21 points or the team with the most points at the end of 10 minutes of play wins. Fewer players on a smaller court playing for less time means the players have to be extremely versatile, able to guard and score against a variety of different types and sizes of players. The result is an intense, fast-paced and exciting game. Competition format For the men's and women's three-on-three tournament, eight teams are placed into a single pool and play all the other teams over the course of four days. The top two teams advance straight to the semifinals. Teams that finish third through sixth go on to the quarterfinals. The Triplets take on the 3 Headed Monsters during BIG3 in Milwaukee. Dylan Buell/Getty Images Two knockout games are played in the quarterfinals. The two winning teams will meet the top two teams from the pool play in the semifinals. After two semifinal matches, the winning teams will play each other for the gold medal. Losing teams will face off for the bronze. Olympic qualification As host country, Japan is only given one automatic spot -- total, not per gender. Four additional teams (per gender) will earn a berth through their [ world ranking] on Nov. 1, which takes into consideration performance as well as how often they play in FIBA-approved tournaments. Three more teams (per gender) will qualify for Tokyo through the 2020 FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament (date and location TBD). And the last remaining team will be selected at a 2020 FIBA Universality-driven Olympic Qualifying Tournament (date and location TBD). The US men's and women's squads will take a slightly different path to qualification, however. Because three-on-three tournaments tend to be held at times and in locations that make it hard for top US players to attend, USA Basketball has teamed up with RedBull to launch a series of qualifying tournaments in 23 cities across the country. Everyone and anyone was encouraged to apply -- not just pros. The tournaments kicked off on June 22 in Detroit and will wrap up at nationals in March 2020. In three-on-three basketball, shots taken from beyond the traditional three-point line are only worth two points. Daniel McCullough/Unsplash Through this tournament, USA Basketball hopes to set their rosters for their men's and women's three-on-three team either by choosing one team (per gender) that's used to playing together or assembling a composite team. According to FIBA rules, two of the four players (per gender) must be ranked in the top 10 in America in the FIBA rankings; the other two must be in the top 100. In other words, players cannot qualify without competing in FIBA-approved three-on-three events, which means if NBA and WNBA players want to take part, they'd likely have to do it during their 2019 offseason. So far, the top-ranked men's teams are Serbia, Russia and China, while Russia, China and France lead the way for the women. But with lots of three-on-three basketball left to play, [ those rankings] can quickly change. Whether the US men and women will field globally competitive teams remains to be seen, but you can follow the action at [ redbull.com/3X].

Kosovo War Crimes Tribunal Arrests First Suspect Former KLA Leader

2020-10-24T13:10:42Z

180.250.12.10:

By Stephanie van den Berg THE HAGUE, Sept 24 (Reuters) - A former insurgent commander, Salih Mustafa, has been arrested in Kosovo and transferred to the Kosovo war crimes tribunal's detention center in the Netherlands, the court said on Thursday. Mustafa was a Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) commander during the 1998-99 Kosovo conflict. The indictment charges Mustafa, 48, with four counts of war crimes including the beating and torture of at least six people and one murder. According to the indictment, which was made public after his arrest, Mustafa led a guerilla unit which ran a detention facility and interrogation site where inmates were beaten, tortured, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] given electric shocks and urinated on. According to prosecutors, Mustafa not only oversaw the violence but also personally participated in beatings and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour phượng hoàng cổ trấn] told one detainee he was a spy and was to be killed. "Following his arrest by the specialist prosecutor´s office on 24 September 2020, Salih Mustafa was transferred to the detention facilities of the Kosovo Specialist Chambers in The Hague on 24 September 2020," the Hague-based tribunal said in a statement. Under international law, Mustafa is presumed innocent until proven guilty. A date for his initial appearance in court has not been set, but he is expected to be brought before a judge in the next few days. In June, the tribunal's prosecutor released an indictment against Kosovo President Hashim Thaci for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity, including nearly 100 murders. The indictment has yet to be confirmed by a judge. Thaci, who denies wrongdoing, traveled to The Hague in July to meet with prosecutors. The Specialist Chamber was set up in The Hague in 2015 to handle cases of alleged crimes by KLA guerrillas during the war that led to Kosovo´s independence from Serbia a decade later. Local efforts to investigate alleged KLA war crimes have so far been foiled by widespread intimidation in the state where clan loyalties run deep and former rebels are lionised. The special prosecutor's office is based in the Netherlands partly to help ensure protection of witnesses. The Specialist Chamber is governed by Kosovo law but is staffed by international judges and prosecutors.
