Another situation happened during this same game yesterday.
Team B makes a basket. Team A is inbounding the ball. The ball goes out of bounds without being touched by either Team A or B. Is the ball put in play were the ball went out of bounds or is it a spot throw in from the original spot where Team A threw it in? |

Rhino, check the replies here. It seems by your answer you want the ball to be inbounded from the spot it went out. NO inbound status, ergo bring it back to the throw in spot. You'll see this on the "long bomb" type of passes that go OOB alot. Keep smilin'.

Yes, violation. The bottom of the backboard is inbounds, so A has thrown the ball to an inbounds status. When A1 touches the ball out of bounds he causes the ball to be out of bounds, so it's B's ball at the same spot.

quote: Right on! The backboard has the same status as the floor inbounds. No violation from touching the board, but a violation when the inbounder touched it again. Throw in from wherever he touched it. However, here's a question. If the ball REALLY touched the bottom of the board (as opposed to the back of the board), could it return BACKWARDS to the thrower-in and thus back out-of-bounds? Figuring angles, and assuming the bottom of the board is flat, one would expect the ball to deflect downward and out at least slightly toward the court. If it comes back toward the endline, that would suggest, logically, that the ball struck part of the BACK of the board, which is a violation in itself. Same result in either case (violation), but if another player had touched or grabbed the ball before it went OOB and started dribbling or took a shot, that would be a different situation (for example, an opponent scores a quick basket right there). |

I agree with Rhino00047. I don't have my rule books with me but it seems to me that the mechanic of bringing the ball back to the spot of the throw-in would only apply after a throw-in when the clock is NOT running. The question says that Team B was inbounding the ball after Team A made a shot, therefore the clock is running. Besides, in that instance with player B1 allowed to run the end line, where do you put the ball in play if you have to bring it back to the spot of the throw-in? What does rule 7-1,7-2 say?

Todd -
You raise an interesting point about hitting the BACK of the backboard. The coach thought that on the inbounds play the ball hit the BACK of the backboard before bounding back to the inbounder so her point was that it never had inbounds status - redo the throw-in. It is a violation to hit the back of the backboard IF the ball is in play. But what if it hits the BACK when inbounding the ball? |
