Held Ball.

A situation that occurs when two opposing players, an offensive player and a defensive player, become tangled and both share possession of the ball and neither can gain sole possession without being over-aggressive. In the event of a held ball - the ball is blown dead -, an official must determine which team retains possession. To do this, he/she will stop play and either call for a jump ball or refer to the possession arrow, depending on the rules of the league: in the NBA, a jump ball is used to restart play, while college teams, FIBA & ULEB use the alternating-possession rule .

"Help".

A defensive terminology: "I need help, rotate defensively !".

High Double.

A play that would be used to isolate an athletic big man - such as Griffith, but it is equally dangerous at various points in the play due to the positioning of the other players in spots where they are more than confident to score or drive to set up teammates, and focus on getting the ball into the hands of his best scorers at critical times.
