Player oob

[tjchamp]

Can a player standing out of bounds draw a foul (other than intentional or flagrant)? For example, B2 is out of bounds under the basket (momentum or some other legal reason). At the same time, A1 has just finished a layup and has come to the ground, then runs into B2 out of bounds. If B2 had been in bounds, no doubt you call a pushing foul.

1. Ball still on rim when contact occurs (live ball)
2. Goal has scored, but team B has yet to get control of ball (dead ball period)

I'm thinking no-call in both cases. B2 is out of bounds, so he cannot have a "legal" guarding position. Also, a foul prevents the opponent from performing normal offensive or defensive movements. Being oob, would already prevent him from performing those.
