While BktBallRef makes valid points, the fact remains that the official did not use good judgment in applying the purpose and intent of the rule. The rule which prohibits the free thrower from breaking the plane of the FT line is clearly for the purpose of preventing the shooter from jumping closer to the basket while trying for goal. It is not intended to take away a FT opportunity from a player who dropped the ball prior to shooting it.
I think that the OP has a right to be upset. |
