I know that the NBA marches to its own beat when it comes to rules enforcement, but Vince Carter's pass off of the board to himself isn't legal is it? Unless the official rules a "try", you couldn't retrieve this ball could you?
Am I right or wrong here? I know that the opponents board is treated like the floor, but not your own board. In that case, unless it is a "try", then if you throw the ball off of the board, it has to touch the ground before you can get it right? And even then, you could only do that if you had a dribble left.

It is always legal at every level to throw the ball off your own board, recover it, then start a dribble.
