Hangin' on the Rim
Looking for a thread about "T's" and came across this page. Last night at HS tournament the following takes place: Less than 10 secs left in game, team A leads by three points and has break-away steal; A1 is headed towards his basket followed by B1 and trailed by A2; A1 lays ball up and misses, trailing A2goes high above basket to slam home the rebound but is unable to secure control of the ball. A2 then decides as long as he's up there he grabs the rim. A! and B1 are not under A2 and A2 is in no danger of being hurt if he had simply returned to the floor without grasping rim. Official calls foul, team B makes 1 of 2 and then ties game with two point shot, goes into OT and team B wins game. Wrath against official is minimized because team A coach blew 15 point lead with 5 minutes to go in the game. What do you guys think; was the T the correct call?
