Plays That Never Happen
I don't mind discussing plays that happen only once every five or ten years, but I hate discussing plays that will probably never happen.
A few years ago, on the IAABO Refresher Exam, a question appeared that I believe will never, never happen. To paraphrase it:
After a throw-in in by A-1, in A-1's backcourt, the ball, untouched by either team inbounds, is on the floor in the backcourt for more than ten seconds. Since the ten second count doesn't start until Team A controls the ball inbounds, what rule does the official apply? I don't remember the exact wording, but it was a yes or no answer.
My answer: Why doesn't Team B pick up the ball? I don't remember the correct answer. Do any of you?
