kick ball question?

VPKII · #1 (**permalink**) Thu Mar 20, 2003, 08:28am

player A1 has ball in front court. a pass to A2 is low so A2 sticks leg out "intentionally" to stop ball and the ball hits A2 on the ankle. do i have a "offensive" kick ball violation?

As long as it was done intentionally, it's a kick; whether it's done by the offense or defense.

David, I'm guessing that's the FIBA rule. In NCAA, you'd reset to 35 (men's) or 30 (women's). Drake will correct me if I'm wrong, but in the NBA, you reset to 24 only if the violation occurs in the backcourt. If it occurs in the frontcourt, then you keep the time remaining on the shot clock or reset to 14, whichever is greater.

Really? That could be a good strategy.

The shot clock is running out, so A1 passes to A2 who kicks the ball. Now A gets a fresh shot-clock.

Jeez, Bob! You are in some kind of mood today!!

wait is this a violation and possession goes to team B right? If not, then Bob is right. Lets say game with 45 seconds left and team A leading by one. Most likely team B will just try to play good D and try to get back the ball with at least 10 seconds to try to win it. However, team A could then wind the clock down under 35 seconds and then kick the ball to reset the clock. This does not make any sense.

Any kicking violation results in possession to the other team. Bob was being facetious.

maybe you didn't understand me...
in FIBA if team A control the ball and deffensive player (team b)is kicking the ball-only then it will be new 24 sec' for team A.this is basketball game not football game . i think this rule(fiba) is very normal.
