What is an offensive three second violation in basketball?

[Edit]

Answer

Otherwise known as three-seconds-in-the-key-way.

Players on the offensive team are only allowed 3 seconds in their keyway at anytime, well, as long as the ref is looking.
If called 'Three-seconds' the ball is given to the opposing team from the baseline.
