Inbound pass

[kltuck]

I guess I was kind of leaning toward the unsportsmanlike. Lat year in a summer league I saw a kid being smart and through the ball at an opponent just trying to start something. He was dribbling fancy, the other team was way behind, he was showing off. The crowd went wild and the ref didn't call anything. Everyone was irate, wanting a 'T' or flagrant. The ref told me there wasn't a rule against it. Well, I guess same thing applies. Do you get in things like how hard was it thrown? Is it taunting? Then it stands to reason that I could dribble the full length of the floor, pick up my dribble, throw the ball at an opponent's back, and resume my dribble, Right? I guess I just never thought of it. Please respond to the last statement.
Thanks
