I am now confused about goaltending. Are you saying that any shot on its way down cannot be touched by the offense? I always thought that was OK as long as it was not in the cylinder. The play that comes to my mind is the NC State championship when Lorenzo Charles tipped in the shot for the win. Ball on the way down, but I think it's a good play. Yes?!?
FIBA rules state (no 43) that the poition of the ball above the cylinder is importantif the ball is above the cylinder, no one may touch it, regardless of a pass, shot or touch after jumpball.
