Tough Call ...
I believe that they did.
Like I said, tough call. A little more control (cupping ball in hand and fingers), easy call, one hand holding, player control, and team control. A little less control (just a few fingers tipping the ball, or flatter hand slapping the ball), easy call, no holding, no player control, and no team control. Was he slapping, tipping, or tapping the ball back onto the court? One can slap, tip, or tap with intent and direction. Was he ever holding the ball (player control is defined as holding or dribbling, nothing about controlling, one can control a tip, tap, or slap without holding the ball)? As it is, no man's land, rock and a hard place, damned if you do, damned if you don't, six of one, half dozen of the other. Judgment. It's why basketball officials get paid the big bucks.

Ancient Times ...
Quote:
Player could be fouled on a tip or tap that missed and get no free throws (before the bonus, his team gets the ball), or a one and one (no double bonus back then). If I recall correctly, if a player was fouled before the ball was in flight after tipping or tapping, the ball became dead immediately and a basket could not be scored. Maybe the best rule change ever. Am I right Mark T. DeNucci, Sr.?

Imagine (John Lennon, 1971) ...

Try explaining that to an irate coach. We did it. We had to do it. I got that right.

Directing Ball Toward Basket ...
If this player had touched an inbounds pass in this manner before "directing" it toward the basket with 0.3 seconds on the clock, followed by the ball entering the basket, would one count the basket?
