another great discussion. i'm justa coach, remember. go easy on me. when defending the inbound, i tell my players to stay 3 feet behind the line and don't break the 3 foot plane. first time we do it - a warning. second - "t".
2 questions.
am i wrong on the 3 foot range?
and, whatever the correct distance, can i instruct my players that's it's ok to reach over the plane to deflect the ball once it is released?
(cause, as a previous poster mentioned, one on my pet plays is the old 2 players behind the inbound line after a made basket to break the press... i sure wouldn't want a scottie pippin to intercept the ball and lay it in for a humiliating basket against us)
