[QUOTE=Old School]Hold the phone! I got goaltending here. I have never ever seen a case where it wasn't called a score when the ball hit the backbroad first. I'm not quite sure I'm going there. I'm not splittng the difference between if the ball is still going up after it hits the b/b. [Quote=Old School]

Why wouldn't you split that difference? That's what the rule about GT says - the ball MUST be on it's downward flight.

Why? Why should they leave it alone? Just because it hit the backboard? Wrong rule set here, pal...
