baseline
 
After a made basket, can a player continue to run the baseline even after a timeout?

mbyron Sat Feb 28, 2009 09:07pm

Yes.

I would hope he would take a break from running during the timeout.

Scrapper1 Sat Feb 28, 2009 09:37pm

I would make him get down off the backboard (where the baseline is), but allow him to run the end line.

Endline........Not baseline.

Some would argue...
 
Baselines are reserved for the baseball diamond.

Endline has exclusivity to the basketball court.

Sorry, football claims partial rights to the endline as well. ;)

Johnny, you've never been in a game where a team called a time-out after a made basket?

Call the Guinness Book of World Records. mbyron has now set a new world record for the shortest post by mbyron, ever. One word, three letters. There's also another world record here. The most boring post by mbyron, ever. Come on, mbyron, you could do better than that. We have come to expect more interesting, and fascinating, posts from you. Posts that make some of us scratch our heads, and say to ourselves, "Self. What the heck is mbyron talking about?", and then we start thumbing through our copy of Webster's, or Funk and Wagnells. Couldn't you have thrown in an idiom, or a metaphor, or a reference to some great literary, or scientific, figure, or at the least, have thrown in a little Latin?

Or, you could post a "no" answer, and break your own world record.

I am happy to say that thanks to the last discussion on the Forum on this very topic I am a convert and now use the proper terminology when referring to the endline.

I shalst not make that mistake again.....I hope. ;)

I witnessed the refs not allow this and I was sure you could ... that's why I asked. Thanks!
