The GT was by the defense at the offensive teams basket. The throwin will be on the endline. All endline throwins in the frontcourt are handed to the thrower.



Camron, I've long ago learned not to question your analysis but I can't for the life of me conjure up a scenario where a BI/GT at any basket would not lead to a team getting the ball in their own backcourt.

What am I missing?

After a second look....nothing.

I responded too fast...not considering that the basket is awarded for the defensive interference...before heading off to a meeting.

I agree with you in that all throwins after BI/GT will be in the backcourt since the points wiil be awarded for defensive infractions and the defending team will get the ball on the backcourt endline. And, for offensive infractions, the defense will again get the ball on the backcourt endline after the points are canceled.

Looks like there may actually be an inconsistancy in the rules. :|
