Use the top of the ring and the bottom of the ball.

9-4 A player shall not travel with the ball, intentionally kick it, strike it with the fist or cause it to enter
and pass through the basket from below.
1-10-1 ...Each basket shall consist of a single metal ring, 18 inches in inside diameter, its flange and braces,
and a white-cord 12-mesh net, 15 to 18 inches in length, suspended from beneath the ring.
[/B][/QUOTE]Nevada,sometimes you try to think way too much about these rules.The language used above says "suspended from beneath the ring". If there was a different call for special circumstances like the net hanging UP,believe me,a casebook play would have been added. There has been no casebook play added on this one for a net defying the laws of gravity. Personally,I can't think of any circumstance where you could have the net sticking above the basket and the ball now going completely up through.Feel free to call it your way,though,if you ever see it.
