Um, Joe, on a missed shot, there is no defensive player. Or offensive player either. You use A1 and B1 just to show that they're on opposite teams.

Gotcha JR.... In the OP is it safe to assume that B1 is in his/hers backcourt, and the aforementioned RIM was not B1's offensive rim? I'm somewhat familiar with the A1/B1 concept. I think I saw that somewhere, but thanks for the reminder..

I think Jurassic's point is that both players similarly have no business grabbing the rim on a rebound.

Yup, along with the fact that there is no player or team control on a shot so you don't have an offense or defense, and there also can't be a backcourt either until someone does establish player control.

You know what JR, I was actually going to say "I'm also surprised you didn't breakdown the team control or lack of it during the shot or any other rule specifics that you can interject your superior rules knowledge on any subject" but cut it out of my original response. I guess my gut feeling about you was correct and should've kept in.

Joe, if you don't want people answering your posts, why post in the first place?

Don't get mad at me just because you don't have a clue what you're talking about. You're going on about defensive players and offensive players and backcourts when none of those exist. Try learning something about the rules instead of getting pissed off because someone points out your lack of knowledge.

Please feel free to ignore me in the future.

I don't have a problem with any answering or questioning me or what I post. My point was in reference to your

post.

Believe it or not, you're not the only one who knows the rules. Yes you use A1 and B1 to show opposite team, but in my world Team A usually refers to the offense or the last team to have team control, and Team B usually refers to defense, and that's how I was responding in my post.

I'm relatively new to this discussion board, but I see a common pattern where you feel the need to debate your rules knowledge and somebody's lack of it. I came on this board to stay in "basketball" mode during the post season, not to debate whether you or I know more or less then somebody else.
