This was a head scratcher to me. I was working with two college officials and they had nothing. |

And if BillyMac starts up on this forum about this particular call, I will personally travel to Connecticut and remove his gonads with a dull butter knife, such knife having been supplied by BktBallRef. You've been warned, Billy. Last edited by Jurassic Referee; Tue Nov 23, 2010 at 07:07am. |

Got Your Passport ???
Nevermind.
Also, according to my pseudo screen persona, I'm an environmental chemical analyst from Connecticut. I'm really a sweet transvestite from Transsexual, Transylvania.

Jurassic Referee .... I appreciate your detailed answer.
In this particular play, there was little no doubt it was not a pass ![]() A1 was trying to connect with A2 who had slipped behind the defender. A1 never jumped and made the throw with two hands over the top of his head. In accordance to NFHS rules, this would be illegal, because it was not a try? What would be the call? Thanks!!! |

In any event -- play on if the ball hits the team's backboard. If it hits the opponent's backboard, that's a different story. |

The bottom line on this particular call, Johnny, is that afaik it's almost universally accepted that anything thrown off their own board should be judged a try. By strict reading of the rule though, you can judge it as being a pass. But there's also the fact that you might be right in theory in judging it a pass but be very, very wrong in real life if you do so. My advice fwiw is that you should find out from someone in your area...assignor, rules interpreter, etc.... how they want you to call this particular play. Don't be "that guy". Btw, this exact play is currently being discussed on 2 other basketball officiating discussion forums, even as we speak. The almost unanimous consensus seems to be that the accepted call everywhere is to deem it a try all the time. Last edited by Jurassic Referee; Tue Nov 23, 2010 at 10:58am. |

And there is another guy who posts here who MIGHT say, "Don't be a plumber." [Okay. He probably WOULD say it].

DRIBBLE RULE *9.5 SITUATION: A1 dribbles and comes to a stop after which he/she throws the ball against: (a) his/her own backboard; (b) the opponent’s backboard; or (c) an official and catches the ball after each. RULING: Legal in (a); a team’s own backboard is considered part of that team’s “equipment” and may be used. In (b) and (c), A1 has violated; throwing the ball against an opponent’s backboard or an official constitutes another dribble, provided A1 is first to touch the ball after it strikes the official or the board.

9.5 SITUATION: A1 dribbles and comes to a stop after which he/she throws the ball against: (a) his/her own backboard; (b) the opponent’s backboard; or (c) an official and catches the ball after each. RULING: Legal in (a); a team’s own backboard is considered part of that team’s “equipment” and may be used. In (b) and (c), A1 has violated; throwing the ball against an opponent’s backboard or an official constitutes another dribble, provided A1 is first to touch the ball after it strikes the official or the board. (4-4-5; 4-15-1, 2; Fundamental 19) Let me just get this straight in my mind: A1 dribbles and comes to a stop after which he throws the ball against his own backboard and catches the ball. Legal; because a team’s own backboard is considered part of that team’s “equipment” and may be used. I don't understand the "equipment" explanation, but a casebook play is as good as any other rule citation. OK. So now we know that the player can stop his dribble, throw it off his own backboard, and legally catch it. My question now: Does he legally "have the same privileges as the other nine players on the court to shoot the ball or begin a dribble"? I say that he legally can shoot the ball, but I still say that he cannot legally start a new dribble because he never attempted a try. According to the 60 Seconds On Officiating website, A1 now does have "the same privileges as the other nine players on the court to shoot the ball or begin a dribble". I still say, "No".
