First, the introduction of basketball overtime

Overtime means that in some sports competitions, within the regular competition time, the game time is extended and the game is not tied. The extended game is called overtime. Every basketball game must be decided. After 40 minutes (48 minutes in both NBA and CBA), if the two sides are tied, it will be overtime for 5 minutes.
