Is that a serious question, JR? Can you say "throw-in"? No try is necessary for BI to occur.

So you are saying that you can have BI on a ball that is being thrown UP through the bottom of the basket? That's ludicrous!
Howewer,the language in the damn rulebook states that,no matter how ludicrous it may seem, BI DOES occur when a player touches the ball or basket when the ball is within the basket.I also don't believe that it states anywhere that it HAS to occur on a ball going into the basket from above.Methinks that the NFHS Rules Commitee did not not envision encountering such a cunning linguist as yourself,Sir(Yes,I have an appropriate smilie. No,I sureashell ain't gonna post it.)!
Now,please enlighten me as to whether you would ever call it that way.
