Rule 6-3 art 7

[secondregionbug]

Can a jumper get the ball after it is touched by the other jumper after it hits the floor?

Bug, just read the next article (6-3-8) and it answers your question.

My rule book does not have art 8

[Scrapper1]

You're probably using last year's book. Just read the end of 6-3-7.

[secondregionbug]

Yes it is last years book, the way it reads it is YES?

[Scrapper1]

Bug, just read the rule. It's not hidden in code or something. When do the restrictions end?

[Nevadaref]

Allow me to simply the question for you.

There I took out the part that does not matter.

Bug,

Yes,
I hope Scrapper does a better job of quickly answering a waitress (or waiter?) then he does answering your questions!

Neither jumper shall:
a. Touch the tossed ball before it reaches its highest point.
b. Leave the center restraining circle until the ball has been touched.
c. Catch the jump ball.
d. Touch the ball more than twice.
The jump ball and these restrictions end when the touched ball contacts one of the eight nonjumpers, the floor, a basket or backboard.

So, here's another guy who was criticizing D-1 officials earlier this week, yet he doesn't know when a jumper can grab the basketball.

They're at the stage where they don't know enough to know that they don't know enough.

Time will tell if they lose the fanboy mentality and develop into officials. If they don't, we don't need 'em.

That's exactly why I wouldn't just give him the answer. He obviously had the rule in front of him. He needed to think it through, and realize what he didn't know, instead of just having it handed to him.

For what? A question was asked. A rule was given for the OP reading pleasure(can't help if comprehension is lacking) you can read it for yourself and then you still what someone to spoon feed it to you. Around here the response was a mild way of showing some love.
