Final comment states:
"Chandler (PHX) legally touches the ball above the cylinder on the inbound pass. Goaltending rules do not apply because he
makes contact with the ball off of a throw-in and not a live ball that has already legally been touched on the playing court."

Obviously NBA ruleset differs from other levels.

I just have to laugh a bit at players that get all fired up on plays where the illegal contact of some sort is the primary - and usually the only - reason for the execution of a play.

If Chandler had actually fronted and held his position or jumped up higher than the defender from behind w/o displacing him, and finishing that try, then I'd be likely to jump up and slap some high fives along with him.

Aside from that.....meh.....
