Originally posted by Hawks Coach I always see the ref walking back and pointing to half court, even when the ball gets touched by the baseline.
This is one of the most common misperceptions that I know of among refs.
Probably b/c it's the NBA rule. The ball is always put in play at the midcourt line after a backcourt violation in the NBA.
