If your not supposed to contact the rim while the ball is in contact with the rim, howcome a dunk is legal??? As you can tell, I am bored today....

10-3-4 A player shall not "Grasp either basket..."

This is not the same as contact. In my much younger days I could dunk, but I have to admit, it hurt my wrists. Dunking is not as glamorous as it appears! I used to contact the rim, but not "grasp" it.
