walk or not?

Wow....

Allow me to bring this post back to serious, because I have no sense of humor.

Ok, so regardless of whatever mixup we have going on in this play ( or how it is being explained to us ).. the final part is that A1 attempts a layup at B's basket, the attempt falls short, and A1 recovers the ball.

This is a violation. ( applicable rule below )

Another official brought a similar situation to my attention a couple days ago...

A1 ( idiot ) attempts a shot at B's basket. B1 ( bigger idiot ) fould A1 during shot. Ball goes in basket. ?????

Same rule applies. Common foul on B1, and the basket does not count. Spot throw in, or bonus, for A.


As a side note... did you know that even if A1 shoots and makes a three pointer on B2's basket, it is still only two points???? Definitely something I was not aware of

Rule 4, Section 67, Article 1, A.R. 40
A1 becomes confused and shoots the ball at the wrong basket. A1 is fouled while trying to shoot and the ball goes in the basket. Is this a goal? If A1 misses, should A1 be granted two free throws for the foul by the Team B player? RULING: No goal. The ball became dead when the foul occurred. When a player shoots at the opponentÂ’s basket, it
is not a try. When Team A is in the bonus when the Team B player fouls A1, A1 shall be awarded a one-and-one. When Team A is not in the bonus, the ball shall be awarded to
Team A at a designated spot.
