Just so when you do call a violation for the free throw missing the rim you're not the L (unless your partner at T or C brainfarts and misses the obvious miss, of course) and you don't do that upward finger "swirling the toilet bowl" signal. No sense being a plumber about it. Oops, just dissed myself.
Just point to the rim with the other hand upraised with an open hand and then point to where the throwin will be administered.
"Swirling the toilet bowl" isn't a mechanic. It is, however, a signal I use right after solving a stubborn toilet clog. It's in our company's mechanics manual.
