Got a citation, or is this a well educated, experienced, personal, "always listen to bob", "real game (not necessarily rule based)", rational, common sense, opinion?
So a really hard and fast line drive type pass (hardly any arc), maybe a "baseball pass", from the corner, from behind the three point arc, parallel to the endline, that's intended to go a wide open teammate in the opposite corner, but happens to bang really really hard off the rim, goes very high into the air, and then drops quietly into the basket, is how worth many points?
Forget about differentiating between a try, or a pass, or from anything else.
The NFHS doesn't allow us to do that any more for these type of situations (no act of shooting foul, no horn, no goaltending).
