Play Situation
I observed this play situation in a BV playoff game recently and would like your take on what you have:

A1 shoots misses a contested layup, the ball bounds up in the air in the cylinder. B1 and A2 each attempt to get to the ball, and in the process B1 grabs the ring, pulls it down slightly as he releases it and him momentum carries him down. The ball then fades outside the cylinder without being contacted by anyone. What do you have here?

Technical foul on B1 for grabbing the rim, if no one was under him. You can't have BI if the ring was grabbed while the ball was above it and ball was never touched while it was in the cylinder.

JR,

Does someone have to be under him to make the rim grab legal?

Ronnie, unless he grabbed the ring to prevent an injury, it should be a "T". that usually equates to someone being under the grabber.

Why would it have to be the defensive player to be a factor in whether the call is made or not?

It doesn't, BUT in this case B1 grabbed and held the rim and the defensive player has no business grabbing and holding onto the rim unless he's protecting himself.

What if he B1 pulls down a movable ring so that it contacts the ball before the ring returns to its original position? Do we have BI and a Technical foul(as long as no one was under him)?

I assumed that you did just from the way that you cited the question, and that you were posting to clarify that for other readers. It's almost identical to the way the rule is stated in the book. There was nothing else meant by my statement.

The rules won't support that call.

I disagree.. If the ball is in the cylinder it can't be basket interference unless he touches the ball. If the ball is on the rim or in the basket it is basket interference if he touches any part of the basket to include the net.
