Basket Interfernce / Goaltending
A1 drives to the basket and is fouled by B1 while shooting, B2 pulls on net while trying to block shot, shaking the backboard and rim while the ball bounces off of the backboard and rim and does not go in.
Is this goaltending, basket counts and one shot or basket interference? How would you administer if basket interference was the call? |
It's a technical foul charged to B2. It is also basket interference if the ball was on or within the basket when B2 grabbed the net. If so, count the basket, have A1 shoot 1 FT with the lanes empty, team A now gets 2 FT's for the "T" with the lanes empty(any A player(s) can shoot), and then give team A a throw-in at center opposite the table.

I also agree with JR, I've never seen a player pull on the net while trying to block a shot. |

Grabbing net with one hand and attempting block with the other? Attempting block, hitting net, getting 'caught' in it and thus pulling it? |
The ball was above the cylindar coming down to the rim and B2 was coming across the lane and it looked like he got caught in the net and was trying to avoid contact with A1 and B1 who were falling to the ground after the foul on the layup/short jump shot.

They're both technical fouls. The only exception is if the player grasped the net to avoid injury, and it's kinda tough to say that if the player is trying to block the ball at the same time. |

It ain't BI to touch or grasp the net while the ball is in the cylinder. The ball has to be on or within the basket when you grab the net. It's BI if you touch the ball when it's in the cylinder. You know that. |

If you want a correct answer, you have to pick one or the other. They're completely different situations, rules-wise. |

Two different situations described with two different rulings. |

1) Ball is either on the basket or in the imaginary cylinder when the net pulling occurs 2) Grabs the net while blocking the shot or pulls on it to avoid players. No wonder he can't get an answer to his question -- he doesn't know what the question is. (And, I don't mean that as demeaning to the OP. It's just an example of why precision is important -- sometimes even the difference between "baseline" and "endline" might matter. And, it's an example of how mistaken rulings get passed around.) |
