It doesn't mean it meets the definition of "pass" as used in basketball and specifically in the rules you're talking about.

A ball thrown at the basket with the intent of putting it IN that basket, is a try --- even if thrown overhand with one arm.

And you know that.

Obtuse? You have seen Shawshank Redemption, a good flick.

I hear what you are saying and yes, knew what he meant, which is why I had the EEK emoji and the LOLs. My mistake for wasting time with that.
