It is different. We have specific rules which inform us that throwing the ball off a backboard is indeed different from throwing it against the floor.

To state that this is the same as some other backcourt situation is too simplistic.

Agree.

Which is exactly why I posted these three situations. I believed them to be interesting situations that required some degree of thought.

If they had been simple, I wouldn't have posted them.

Actually no. I didn't post all the questions from the latest IAABO Between The Lines Rule Quiz, just the thought provoking ones.

Questions about the size, shape, location, and transparency of backboards aren't interesting topics that require any degree of thought, just a good memory.
