last night this happened. A1 attempts a free throw and the shot only hits the backboard and NOT the rim. my partner blows is dead for not hitting the rim. A's coach doesn't like the call. i was lead, so i wasn't watching the ball. i tell the coach if it didn't hit the rim, it's the correct all.
however, reading the rulebook on when a free throws, it also says touching the backboard. so, was it the correct all? or should play been allowed to continue since it only hit the backboard?
thanks!
