The situation is this:
A player attempting to dunk, ball in hand, at a specific point in time -- who then no longer has the ball, but is now at the basket, a split-second later.
You assert that the grabbing of the rim associated with a normal dunking motion - that begins with a dunking attempt - and follow-through in this split-second later is a separate and punishable act in violation of 10-3-4.
I assert that this grabbing is not a separate act.
We simply disagree.
So is what I posted in post #18 accurate, as far as your ruling in that situation?
