" In the paint", is the area under the basket, from the foul line to the baseline, long and the width of the foul line across. Also know as the key. It is usually painted a different color than the rest of the court. It is a violation for a offensive player to stay " in the paint", for more than 3 seconds during play.

"In paint" means the area of the floor closest, and surrounding the basket. Usually the only painted part of the hardwood. Plus, where u want ur power forwards and centers to dominate.

it means that you are inside the 3 point line...because the 3 point line is "the paint" so you are inside the paint.
