NBA
Hi, Basketball isn't very popular in Poland so I'd like to ask a question connected to the sport. There's a thing in NBA like "winner-take-all game." Can anyone tell me what does it mean? I tried to find information on the Internet but it was all in vain. I know that this topic isn't connected to grammar or anything but it really grinds my gears
