Okay, all the quizzes have had me buried in the rules book, and I've got another question now.
I've always assumed the throw in spot on a BC violation, as well as a 10 second count violation, was at half court. However, after looking at the rules, the spot should be the point nearest the violation.
With a BC violation, the violation occurs when the player touches the ball in the BC, not when the ball crosses half court. Seems to me the spot could be under B's basket if A chases the ball all the way down before touching it.
Also, with a 10 second violation, the same could apply, if you consider the spot of violation to the where the ball is when the 10 second count is reached.
Is my new understanding correct? Or am I too tired for this right now?
