The rules differ slightly in European Basketball and NBA basketball.
In European basketball doesn't have offensive 3-second calls, that rule was implemented by the NBA during the 90's to prevent that eras dominant centers to camp in the paint and catch and dunk.
A 3 second call in the NBA means that you have been in the restricted area (the key/the paint) for over 3 seconds and results in a turnover.
A defensive 3 second call means that you've been camped in the paint without an offensive player to guard in the restricted area and the call for a defensive 3 second call is a technical free-throw (no tech is assessed to a single player)
and the ball back.
it means that your standing in a zone.. in the Nba u can play a zone. You have to be moving the whole time
If an offensive player is inside the key for more than 3 seconds, his team loses the ball. The purpose of the rule is to keep a big man from standing in the key waiting for a pass.
