Visualization of analyzed parameters.
Figure “A” (left side) shows the division of the playing field space about 2-point shots related to the distance from the 6.75 m line. Line 0 (0-50 cm), Line 1 (51-100 cm), Line 2 (101 -150 cm), Line 3 (over 150 cm). Figure “B” (right side) shows the division of the playing field space about the place for taking 2-point shots. Section S1 and S5, “Wings”; Section S2 S4 “Half Wing”; and Section S3 “Centre”. In the Centre of Section S3, representative symbols (circles) corresponding to the analysis of the research context are placed: 9, 6, 12 (seconds of action); 0,-1,-3 (difference in result); CD (Closed after Dribbling); CP (Closed after Pass); OD (Open after Dribbling); OP (Open after Pass). Filling the circles with Red means the throw was unsuccessful, and Green means it was successful. The zone marked in grey was not included in the analysis.

The structure of the decision model is defined for the evaluation performance of the analyzed teams.
C1 - accuracy of throws; C2 - action time; P- preference scores.
Table 1.
A decision matrix is used to evaluate the performance of teams regarding different parts of the game and different ways of making a throw.

Comparison of all 2-point shots made in the group phase of the Olympic tournament by the Polish and Serbian teams.
Successful - green, Unsuccessful red; two periods (1-5 min) and (6-10 min) with sections marked on the pitch (S1-S5) and distance from the line (LO-L3) 6.75 m. Closed after Dribble (CD); Closed after Pass (CP); Open after Dribbling (OD); Open after Pass (OP).
Fig 4.
Comparison of all 2-point shots made in the group phase of the Olympic tournament by the Polish and Serbian national teams.
Successful - green, Unsuccessful red; two periods (1-5 min) and (6-10 min) with sections marked on the pitch (S1-S5) and distance from the line (LO-L3) 6.75 m. The numbers (1-12 sec) show the second in which the shot was made.
Fig 5.
Comparison of all 2-point shots made in the group phase of the Olympic tournament by the Polish and Serbian teams Successful - green, Unsuccessful – red; two parts (1-5 min) and (6-10 min) with the marks marked in pitch in sections (S1-S5) and the distance from the line (LO-L3) 6.75
m. The numbers in the circles show the size of the difference in the result when taking the shot. A negative number is “the team was losing”, a positive number is “the team was winning”, and a zero is “the result was a draw.”.
