What part of the travel rule was broken? |
Needs Clarification ...
9.5 SITUATION: A1 dribbles and comes to a stop after which he/she throws the ball against: (a) his/her own backboard; and catches the ball. RULING: Legal in (a); a team’s own backboard is considered part of that team’s “equipment” and may be used.
I just noticed that 9.5 SITUATION doesn't indicate whether, or not, the player in question moves his pivot foot while the ball is bouncing of his own backboard. It doesn't say that he can. It doesn't say that he can't. This situation is way too open ended. |
Quote:
Throwing the ball against the board in this case, according to you, apparently is neither of these. 4.44.3 C b: A1 throws the ball over the head of B1 and then takes several steps before catching it. tr Ruling: Since the ball did not touch the floor, the tossing and subsequent catch is illegal. |

Agree, but this play is an apple, and everything else is an orange. |

We wont agree but if im going to allow someone to end dribble throw the ball off backboard, run and get it... im going to allow him to dribble it again if he does. |

Then you forgot this fundamental part of the travel rule: Quote:

Why the distinction? I think it is more historic than anything, perhaps hearkening back to the time when jump balls were held in the circle at each FT line (yes, they were once complete circles). A tapped jump ball hitting the backboard would have ended the jump ball restrictions. I can't think of any other reason it would matter aside from making it clear that it is still inbounds even though it is mounted on an OOB surface. |

Illegal Dribble ...
Quote:
9-5: Illegal Dribble A player shall not dribble a second time after his/her first dribble has ended, unless it is after he/she has lost control because of: ART. 1 A try for field goal. ART. 2 A touch by an opponent. ART. 3 A pass or fumble which has then touched, or been touched by, another player. Was there a try for field goal? Was there a touch by an opponent? Was there a pass, or fumble, which was then touched by another player? |

If a coach politely says to me that this is an illegal dribble, I have no rulebook basis, nor do I have a specific casebook basis, to support my no call. |
