The way the announcers stated it, was as if they were talking to a community of Ph.Ds in Basketballology. You would think they would have explained it in simpler terms for the average sports fan.
They do not have to study the rules. All they know is what they see on TV and think it applies to their level when it clearly does not. That is why you have people wanting BI for slapping the backboard even though the rules that never applies but in the NBA.
