Is an 8-second violation (For not getting the ball across the division line) called a backcourt violation in the NBA? Just curious because the play-by-play guy in the Lakers/Nuggets game said that there "Have been several backcourt violations in the playoffs" for not getting it across in 8 seconds. I know the NBA's terminology is way different than other rule sets, but I'm pretty sure a backcourt violation is the same everywhere.
Good lord. Carmello just fouled Areza on a loose ball (clearly displacement) and the PBP guy is saying "Well Areza didn't have the ball"..what a moron. Van Gundy said "That's playoff basketball, they should let it go".
