bd41flpk: Nice citation. Not bad for a newbie with less than thirty posts.

Situation:
A1, losing his balance, launches a prayer from beyond the three point line. His release point is near the floor. B1 is fighting around a screen by A2, and is able to tip the ball as it's released. B1's tip goes off of A2's head and the ball goes in.

The horn sounds between A1's release and B1's tip, and A2 is standing inside the 3 pt line when it hits his head.

1. Does it count.
2. 2 or 3?

Couldn't one consider A2's deflection as a tap...and thus it would have to be before the horn/light?

Rule 4, Section 41

ART. 5 . . . A tap for goal is the contacting of the ball with any part of a player’s hand(s) in an attempt to direct the ball into his/her basket.
ART. 6 . . . A tap shall be considered the same as a try for field goal, except as in 5-2-5.
ART. 7 . . . The tap starts when the player’s hand(s) touches the ball.

If it's intentional, sure. I don't think we can do that if it's an accident.

The last A player to touch the ball is the one making the try/tap....and the time/points are relevant to that last touch.

That is the only way to reconcile the rules around this situation.

The last contact by A be actually be what made the ball go in. If it was after the buzzer, it shouldn't count.
