Thanks Stick, I thought so too, just wanted a second opinion. BTW, I agree, it was a thing of beauty.

Camron, you cannot throw the ball off of your own board to start a dribble, only the opponents. Also, in the situation from the NBA, the player was dribbling when he threw the ball off of the board, so when he threw the ball he ended his dribble.

Now, if you catch a pass, throw the ball off of your own board (not a try), can you recover it. I don't think so, until it hits the ground. Otherwise you would be touching the ball twice before it hits the ground. Pretty sure there is a case in the case book about that. (NFHS)
