ok this is going where I expected

ok, this is pretty much the debate we had at our meeting. All of the above are good points and at one time or another, I have agreed with all of them. I personally would tend to argue JR's point a little stronger than the rest. Here is another point I think should be brought up and see what effect it has on the discussion.

There has been lots of discussion before about "passing" the ball to yourself off of your own backboard. If you hold to the theory that it is legal to end your dribble in the front court, throw it off of your backboard catch it and then continue the dribble, then I ask this.

If I remember correctly the theory was that, this is legal based on the fact that player and team control end during a try, and if it hits the glass it "is" a try. If my recollection is correct, and I am sure I will be corrected if it isn't, then, isn't this the same situation just from a different area of the court?

ok continue as you were LOL
