ref18, I really don't mean to argue. That's the rule, and that's how you should call it if you work with FIBA rules. I just don't think it's fair to judge the value of the shot on where the defender last touched the floor. I think it makes more sense to judge the value of the shot by where the shooter last touched the floor.
I think I see the logic of the FIBA interp, I just don't think it's the fairest interp.

Let me play the devil's advocate. A defender (NCAA) slaps the backboard, the shot rolls off the rim as the rim is still vibrating. Basket interference? No. Is that the fairest interpretation?

While I don't necessarily agree with this rule, it's not nearly as absurd as as the FIBA rule on a blocked 3 point shot.
