How about...

Rule 1-10 BASKET SIZE, MATERIAL
ART. 1 . . . Each basket shall consist of a single metal ring, 18 inches in inside diameter, its flange and braces, and a white-cord 12-mesh net, 15 to 18 inches in length, suspended from beneath the ring.

I don't...and won't.

Apples and oranges..... and trying to make a rule fit that has nuthin' to do with the actual stuation.
What part of "net...suspended from beneath the ring" doesn't fit?
Where may I find a rule directing an official to immediately fix the net when it's hung up? I also take it that you'll stop play immediately to fix the net as soon as you see it's hung up, even though a player may be all alone on the break. Correct?

As for Nevada, how can you say you agree with Camron, and then also say that you'll stop play at the first opportunity instead of stopping play immediately? You guys can't have it both ways if you try to use that argument.

Iow, I respect your opinion. However, I don't agree with it. [/B][/QUOTE]

I never said I would stop it immediately. Like someone else has said, I would address it as soon as no direct attack on the basket was in progress.
