jasonboom This is something ive never seen before and never thought of until i saw it. A team is inbounding the ball against a press. The inbounder throws a length of the court inbounds pass that actually goes in the basket, somebody from his own team grabs it out of the net and puts it in again. Should this count? What is the proper ruling?
POShea Throw-in violation when the ball goes directly into the basket during the throw-in, ball is dead and an administered throw-in Team B (the original defending team) The basket by Team B is cancelled and they get the ball. Take Care - Pat
Tom Cook I agree that the ball going through the basket on a throw-in is a violation, but where is the throw-in spot for Team B. I think it's back at the Team A spot, the same as if the ball went directly out of bounds.
Pirate JBoom: It is a violation as stated by the previous posts. What is your call however if the ball lodges between the backboard and the goal during the throw in???? If you said it's a violation, you're correct.
