[edit] The key

The word "key" appears only once in this article, in discussion of a half-court game (which have varying rules anyways). It is not defined, so a reader unfamiliar with basketball would have no idea what it refers to. In addition, the derivation of the term could be added.

It appears to have been defined by now, though the derivation has not been added. --gohlkus 21:58, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Can somebody provide some info on the older variations of the key? I just saw an old image on TV of a quite narrow key lane (which, because of the larger relative diameter of the free throw circle, actually resembled a key!) and haven't been able to find any more information about it online. --65.28.15.180 08:05, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] North American diagram

We need a diagram of a North American court to accompany the FIBA one, to demonstrate how they are different. Right now we have a diagram of a FIBA court, but most of the description is of a North American one. 68.40.65.164 22:17, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

I've made one already. --Howard the Duck 08:45, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
