Throw-in from the end line after a made basket.

So I guess the throw in ends once the ball is kicked...boy that is splitting some hairs there!

The throw in ends at the same time the violation occurs...the rule says before the throw in ends.

Got it...not trying to be a smart ***...just trying to learn!

I think when you were reading the rule you were missing the part I hilighted above.

No...I understood that... but I was putting to much into A team retains this privilege if the scoring team comits a violation

Euby -- after a made endline when a team goes to attempt their throw in and there is a foul or infraction on the throw-in and in result the following throw-in will be the endline then that team retains the right to run the endline. Seems like the train of thought would be that the team would be at a disadvantage on a spot-throw in because of a foul or violation by the opposing team.

No, instead you just weren't reading far enough into the same sentence - as BadNews pointed out.

Read case book play 7.5.7SitB. If you not sure of what a rule really is trying to say, always look for a corresponding case book play that might explain the ruling in more detail.

DeeCee...that really doesn't seem right in a normal train of thought for a team to lose the right to run the baseline on a violation by the other team does it?

Not a very good rule.

He agrees with you.
He told you that the team RETAINS the right to run. That is the rule and you are correct about why.

Question: How often do you see a kicking violation 20 feet away from the pass? Answer: Not very often.
Whoever wrote the question pictured the kick right next to the end line, as it would happen 98.7 (or more) % of the time. An oversight? Perhaps. But not a big deal. Take the route of least resistance and move on.
