    Hi
    I have little problem and I have a question for you. What's the different between buzzer and buzzer-beater. Is buzzer-beater the same as game winner ? If you can give me a definition or something like that. Thanks [​IMG]

    P.S. I don't speak english very well [​IMG]

    buzzer beater can be any buzzer. For example, end of quarter or shot clock. but game winner is a shot that obviously wins the game.

    I'm assuming you just don't know the definition of a buzzer, buzzer beater, and game winner:

    buzzer - the sound you hear signalling either the end of the quarter/game or when the shot clock expires.

    buzzer beater - a shot that went in and was released just moments before the buzzer sounded.

    game winner - the final shot that won the game. It doesn't necessarily have to be a buzzer beater.


    I apologize if I just stated the obvious for you... but I hope that answers your question.
