Well, that might explain it. You're talking to an East Texas native (Daingerfield, praise God.)that's been transplanted to the Midwest. Some might argue that East Texas is a little more like heaven than earth!

My question is who told you, and how do they know? It sounds like the last transmission in that old game of "telephone". There may have been some important facts left out of the telling.

I dont no if i understand it but i guess in F.I.B.A that would be the wrong call if a player is injuredfrom the defensive team unless he is injured in the middle of play or if he leaves the court it would just be play on until the next time the ball goes dead.

It's a violation when the player leaves voluntarily, returns, and is the first person to touch the ball.

On the original play -- it's a correctable error. (Okay -- it's not, but since I kicked it on the other thread, I thought I'd try it here.)

I don't think so. The person I talked to was one of the players from team A. I know they were taping all the games, and I'll see if I can get my hands on the tape.

Wrong ruling
 

You would not penalize the offense in this situation by canceling the basket. No way.

What idiot coach is going to let his players stand around out of bounds so they can spit in a trash can? No wonder they lost by 43 points.

I checked with the person who kept the visiting scorebook and she said that it really happened.

By the way, that was the close game.

Can't we just say no foul would cancel the shot? [NFHS]

Hmmm, cancel the shot and no T. If I'm a coach, I'm gonna have one player designated as my "step oob" player. Every time the other team shoots, he's gonna step oob and cancel the shot. As long as we get the first basket of the game, we'll be unbeatable.
