A pass that is gonna be close to an alley oop. A2 misses the ball it hits the back board and bounces back to A1 who is the first to touch it in the back court. Do we have a violation?
If it's "close to an alley oop" and it hits the backboard, that's good enough for me. I'm calling it a "try", followed by no backcourt violation. If the player hadda line-drived it at the board, I mighta thought about it- but I also might give him the benefit of the doubt on that one too. Have to see that one, though.
The force required to make it back to A1 in the back court would be a "try" that was a brick of Great Wall of China proportions.
