I like that fast play system.

I once made up my own basketball game somewhat like that. I would use a standard deck of 52 playing cards and 2 standard dice. I would shuffle the deck and put it in a pile face down. I would draw a card first for the visiting team lets say an 8. I would then roll the dice. If I rolled an 8 the team was credited with a 3 point shot. If I rolled a 7 or a 9 it would be a 2 point shot. If I rolled a 6 or 10 it would be a 1 point free throw. If the dice roll was not within 2 of the card as stated in the example it became a rebound. I would then roll both dice. If it came up doubles it was an offensive rebound and the offense would draw the next card and roll again. Any other rool but a double would be a defensive rebound and they would draw and roll. Once through the deck was a quarter for the pros and a half for college. All cards were face value and picture cards were a jack=11, a queen= 12 a king=13 and was not eligable for a 3 pointer because a dice roll can be no higher than a 12.For the aces I made them a 7 since this was the easiest number to score on. I used the 2 jokers as wild cards and assigned a number to each team for their wildcard number. The better teams got the easier numbers to hit and the weaker teams were assigned tougher numbers to hit.

I also had a list of 6 players per team to keep stats. Starting at the top of the list when the card was turned it was that players shot and if he scored the points were his. If he missed the next guy on the list and the first guy on the other teams list were up for the rebound. After the rebound was determined you would move down the list to the next guy and move on. I would only use the 6th player on the list every other time through the list because he was the designated player off the bench.
