I will take a guess. We are officials, we study the rules. We might not do the NBA, but know the differences. Not that there are very many to begin with. This is not a violation at any level. You can bounce the ball of your own basket and it is not a travel. It would only be a violation if they did so off their opponents basket.

When you start listening to media people for rules consideration, you are really in trouble.
