Well, the FED violation is for causing the ball to "enter and PASS THROUGH the basket from below."

If the top of the ball gets 1" above the rim, has the ball passed through the basket? (I recognize the original question said 1', but I'm guessing that was a typo. Even if it wasn't I'd like some discussion on the meaning of "pass through" as it applies to this situation.)
