According to the rules, it is possible for a team to be down to 2 players and continue to play, and even down to one player if the referee feels that that one player has a chance of winning. I had a situation like that in my game for intramurals today, and it raised a question: How does the one person inbound the ball? Is the only way to bounce it off of one of the other players and hope to pick up the rebound off of them, or throw it to one of them and continue to play? I can't find anything in the rules to help with this. Also, when you're down to one player, and he fouls and generates foul shots, do you just ignore the violation on the defense for not having 2 people in the first slots under the basket? It is a wierd situation, for sure.
Thanks!
Dave
