Chuck, I too have been studying the NBA Rules, Manual and Casebooks. They have a lot of differences from NFHS and NCAA that just make sense when applied to a man's game. It's good now that we can discuss some of the differences between the three sets. My question is in game 3 of the Portland/LA series when Horry made the 3-pointer from the corner in front of the Blazers bench to win the game, Stoudamire jumped out at him to distract him, what if Horry had missed the shot and Stoudamire had made contact with him, whether it be slight or not which caused the missed shot. I had heard, can't confirm or quote the rule, that in the WNBA they would score the basket and penalize with a T. How would you handle this in NF or NCAA. Can you call an intentional on bench personnel in order to give 3 shots otherwise a T only gives 2 shots. What if the 3 was attempted at the buzzer to tie or win the game, in NF or NCAA how would this be handled? I can't find this anywhere in the NBA Rules either. Of course, you would want to give 3 shots to the player but how would justify by rule in all 3 sets. What other rules differences between NF/NCAA and NBA have you found? I have a bunch which we can discuss.
