The format

A game everyone knows,
run like a professional sport

Twenty-one is the oldest argument in basketball. We gave it a rulebook, a shot clock, officials and a season table — and left everything that makes it worth watching alone.

Games to 21

Ones inside the arc, twos behind it. Win by two, or take the first basket after the ten-minute cap.

12-second shot clock

Clear behind the arc, then score inside twelve seconds. Stalling is a turnover, not a tactic.

Six stops, one bracket

Every stop is a sixteen-player single elimination. Points carry to the season table; the top eight reach the Finals.
