BillyMac didn't say a damn thing about a dunk in his original statement. He said it is illegal to hang on the rim if a player was fouled. PERIOD!! That's an all-inclusive statement, folks. It covers all of the possible different scenarios, not just a dunk. For instance, it covers the case of a defender whacking the shooter as soon as he picked the ball up for a lay-up, with the shooter then continuing his normal motion, laying the ball off the board, and then following through and grabbing the ring and hanging from it. It could also cover a player going up for a tip, being fouled without ever touching the ball, and then grabbing the ring despite never having been put off-balance by the foul and also having nobody underneath him. According to Billy's original verbiage, it's legal to hang from the rim in that case too. Um, don't think so.

Before I tell you to shut up, let me ask 1 question:
this includes dunks too, right?
TIA.
