I saw the play in question, and even remember the official in question still rubbing his head during some free throws a minute or so later.

Anyhow, on the play in question, and I don't have a replay to review, but I'm not completely positive that said official was OOB. Anyone have a replay?

No, he is not considered OOB, unless he tried to use the referee to keep himself from going OOB, which this was not the case. the only way this could have been OOB is if the ball was loose and it hit the ref with him being OOB.

Do you have a reference for this?

Well I don't have my NBA rule book or case book on me, but I can say it with 100% confidence that this is correct, especially in the play described.

I believe you, I'd just like to read what the rule actually is when you get the chance. I haven't been able to find it in the online rules.

Saw that, but was wondering more about the "official is not an object" and "A1 would be OOB if he touched the official in the process of keeping himself (A1) inbounds" interpretations.
