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.

If someone attempts a legit shot, let's say it's an airball and he or she is quick enough to run it down and grab it before anyone else does, that's legal. Other than in the NBA what Vince Carter did yesterday is not legal. I gotta admit however, IT WAS SWEET!!
