November 9, 2011 at 5:32 AMHere you go:
zone defense: 区域防守 qūyù fángshǒu
man-to-man defense: 人盯人防守 réndīngrén fángshǒu
to block a shot: 盖帽 gàimào
to set a pick: 掩护 yǎnhù
center: 中锋 zhōngfēng
point guard: 组织后卫 zǔzhī hòuwèi
shooting guard: 得分后卫 défēn hòuwèi
power forward: 大前锋 dàqiánfēng
small forward: 小前锋 xiǎoqiánfēng
BTW, re your question about communicating with team mates, I think a mix of English and Chinese will do.

November 7, 2011 at 3:48 AMIf you click on the small clog wheel on the right of the lesson page, you can change the setting between simplified and traditional characters. Once you do it, all of the characters including the vocab will be displayed as traditional. It's kind of hard to change the font size on the site. But for the PDF, you can use the enlarge feature in Acrobat. Hope this helps.
