I saw a different image of the floor on video and the lines were much more visible in it than the graphic posted in this thread.

Is there a hidden spotted owl that we are supposed to find?

Here is a real picture of the court. It does not look nearly as bad as I would have thought it would.

Real picture of the court

Where does it say the rules "clearly defined?" All the rules says in NF is that the line must be solid or a shadow line. Hard to tell this by the pictures, but that does not mean the line is not solid either.

NFHS rule 1-3-2NOTE says that "the continuous 2-inch wide outline must be clearly visible to the officials". That's the same as "clearly defined" for all practical reasons imo.

The key to that is "to the officials." Even the graphic that was shown was not as good as the picture I showed at least when looking at the 3 point line.

I was aware of the wording, but it does not say it has to be anything to those watching from a far. That is why there can be a shadow line and anyone on the court can clearly see the line. Case in point the Conference and NCAA Tournaments.
