Is this a carry?
Little debate on a call last night on a pickup game.
I was dribbling the ball and saw a guy open and went to pass it one handed. I don't know how but i dribbled the ball a little hard right before I tryed to one hand pass it and completely missed the ball and the ball bounced up to around shoulder level or a little higher.. My hand went under the ball not touching it and then came back down and i regained my dribble off the bounce and no steps were taken. Some kid called me for carrying. My defense was i didn't even have control of the ball or touch it between the time it bounced off the floor and it hit hit the floor again. Now I did a little research here and I found a website that has missunderstood rules. http://www.dallasref.com/Resources/B...ball_rules.pdf 8) Palming or carrying is when a player gains an advantage when the ball comes to rest in the player's hand, and the player either travels with the ball, or dribbles a second time. There is no restriction as to how high a player may bounce the ball, provided the ball does not come to rest in a player’s hand. Steps taken during a dribble are not traveling, including several that are sometimes taken when a high dribble takes place. It is not possible for a player to travel during a dribble. So if im reading this right that was not a carry correct? |
