Sports season

The 2012–13 NBB season was the fifth edition of Novo Basquete Brasil, the Brazilian basketball league. This tournament is organized entirely by the Liga Nacional de Basquete (LNB). The NBB serves as a qualifying competition for international tournaments such as Liga Sudamericana and Torneo InterLigas. For this season the qualify for the FIBA Americas League came to be through the Liga Sudamericana.

This season has a record number of participating teams, with eighteen teams playing each other in round and second round in the regular season. At the end of two rounds the top four teams qualify for the quarterfinals of the playoffs automatically, while the teams finishing in the 5th and 12th place participated in the first round of the playoffs to determine the other four teams in the quarterfinals, best of five matches, advances to the next phase who win three games.[1]

For this season, the LNB added a new feature: the last two regular season placed will dispute a four-group against the two finalists in the Super Copa Brasil de Basquete. The two top finishers in this group receive the right to contest the next NBB.[2]

NBB All-Star Weekend[edit]

This season, the All-Star Weekend will be played in Ginásio Nilson Nelson in Brasília on March 1–2, 2013. In the first day of the event, it will be disputed the “Dunk Tournament”, “Three-Point Tournament” and “Skills Challenge”. In these three tournaments, the champions in the previous season are already included, while the other participating players will compete for the remaining spots. The players of Brasília, the host team, are also included at these tournaments.[4]

In the second day, it will occur the main event on the weekend, the NBB All-Star Game, which will be disputed by two teams divided into “NBB Brasil”, formed by Brazilian players, and “NBB Mundo”, formed by foreign players. On February 6, the Liga Nacional de Basquete (LNB) announced the players that will make up the teams NBB Brasil and NBB Mundo, which will compete in the fifth edition of the All-Star Game of the national competition. In all, 85 votes were counted. Different professionals who participated in the election had assigned different weights. The coaches of the 18 teams vying for the NBB accounted for 50%, the captains of the teams were left with 20%, while the specialist press and the personalities of basketball had 30% weight. The starter players will be chosen by votes on the internet.[4]

Dunk Tournament[edit]

For Dunk Tournament, the champion in the previous season was the shooting guard Gui Deodato, from Bauru, while the host team, Brasília, will be represented by the shooting guard Isaac Gonçalves. The other challengers to the title was defined after being evaluated by a jury of personalities from the artistic and basketball. The judges evaluated each participant a dunk and choose two athletes (Danilo Fuzaro and Jefferson Socas). The fifth element (Desmond Holloway) was set after a popular vote on the Internet.[5] The two finalists were the champion of the previous season Gui Deodato and the shooting guard Danilo Fuzaro. Using the cover of the character Batman and a mask of the famous villain Darth Vader, Gui Deodato won the tournament.[6]

Three-Point Tournament[edit]

The tournament will have six competitors for the title. The champion of previous season Helinho, from Uberlândia, and Rossi, from the host city team, had already been secured in the dispute and its four rivals was decided after the completion of qualifying, which was played between matches of the NBB on February 14 and February 16.[7] In the final, which featured Matheus Dalla, from Limeira, and Matheus Costa, from Basquete Cearense, it was necessary two tiebreaks to know the champion. In the second tiebreak Matheus Dalla won his first Three-Point Tournament.[8]
