I think this is confusion to many of us. More comments welcomed. By putting the ball on the floor during a simple dead ball OOB situation isn't that the ROP procedure in essence? So why the distinction about TO and intermission?

Rule 4-38 is as follows:

The ROP procedure is used to prevent delay in putting the ball in play when a throw-in team does not make a thrower available OR following a time-out or intermission as in 7-5-1 and 8-1-2. The procedure results in a violation instead of a technical foul for initial delay in specific situations.
Where were you guys during this thread?

Figuring out the RPP revision
