HAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAAH RAINMAKER!!

Show me a coach who studies the rules, and I will...........

Just show me a coach who studies the rules first!!!


Lotto, I apologize. What I am saying is that when Chuck said that throwing the ball off of YOUR OWN backboard is the same is throwing the ball off of your opponent ( he has touched it, so now you can do whatever you want with it ) that he explained the situation well.

AR 43 says your backboard is equip in your half of the court, and you are entitled to use it.

AND SPECIFICALLY GIVES NO RESTRICTIONS UPON SECURING THE BALL AFTER IT HAS BEEN RETRIEVED FROM HITTING THE BACKBOARD.( which means all other basketball rules would apply..ie he cant walk 6 steps with the ball upon securing it from the bckbrd simply because there are no SPECIFIC restrictions )

Does that explain it a bit better?

Man, I definately see I have to work on my typing/internet communication skills...
