1. Dunker goes up I comes back down with the ball after
completely missing everything (ball did not touch the rim).
Travel. Not a legitimate try, IMO.
2. Dunker goes up & gets "stuffed" by either the underside
of the rim or the top of the rim.
No travel, reset the shot clock. This is a legitimate
try, IMO.

Dan,
If the Dunker goes up and misses everything, why is that not a try? The try would seem to be the reason the Dunker elevated.
Let's take the rim out of it and insert the backboard.
Do we still have a "no call", or do we now have something else?

As I was writing this I thought "Mick's gonna ask me about
the backboard".  Hitting the rim or backboard is a try
on this play so he gets the travel unless he hits either
with the ball. (If you go up to dunk & miss *everything* then you deserve a travel!

Dan,
I think if he forgets to leave the ball up there, he deserves a travel.
