Part I Test, Question # 11

garote · #1 (**permalink**) Tue Oct 05, 2004, 01:28pm

The question states:
"Continuous motion only applies if the defenseive foul is committed against the shooter."

I say the Answer is False due to the wording in the Rule 4-11-1 "....no significance unless there is a foul by any defensive player...."

Help!!!!

The answer is FALSE.

Why are you confused? Does someone else say True?

Isn't that one of the changes to this years rulebook??

It is an editorial clarification. The previous wording was not really clear. Now it is much clearer.

New clarification says a basket can be counted even if a foul was committed away from the ball, but only if the shooter has continuous motion as the foul was committed.
