Your post made it seem like the pertinent factor was that the ball was still travelling upwards.

If the ball is below the rim in the NBA? Yes, the pertinent factor would be if the ball is on its upward flight.
The defense can only touch the ball if it doesn't have a chance to score. So if we want to relate to when the defense can touch the ball if it's below the level of the rim in the NBA? If it's on its downward flight.
