I wonder how many Forum members, and readers, would have looked up and read 6.4.5 SITUATION B if I had not posted it?
All the one who weren't sure of the rule *should* go to the books to find it.

Sorry, Billy. I love your helpfulness and you've actually had my back in the past, thankyouverymuch. But have to agree with Bob on this one. Posters should all have books and not expect handouts, at least not until they've put in a little effort on their own.

Agree. But I wonder, how many of us who knew the rule still took a look at the Forum posted caseplay because it was posted and was simple to read with little effort?

I read every high school rule, caseplay, and interpretation posted on the Forum, even if I already know the rule.

How does one get to Carnegie Hall? Practice, practice, practice.

How does one become proficient in knowing and understanding basketball rules? Read, read, read.
