(Sorry for the caps - I haven't figured out how to underline, bold, etc. on the forum.)
Exactly my point. This speaks of the edge of the line which is farther from the basket. In the case of the semicircle that would be the edge which comes flush with the three point line. Therefore, it is ok to step ON this semicircle but not over it. At least that is my understanding. I was wondering if JR had a different conception.
