Also, thanks everyone for pointing out that the offense can have a kicked ball called on them. I got screamed at quite a bit over this a few years back - by my co-workers, nonetheless - and love to see people correct the myth. [/B]

I'm with you MD. Just remind them that this is basketball, not soccer.
