The penalties are different. A player committing a violation (ie. stepping in the lane early, failing to hit the rim on the shot) versus say the shot being missed and bouncing over the backboard have different penalties. Therefore they cannot be the same. But now that I think about it I was looking at it from a defensive versus offensive offender. Been off the court for too long .

The difference may seem obvious to us, but on the surface, the shooter causing the ball to go OOB is only slightly different than missing the rim.

The difference is fundamental, but I wouldn't mock someone for not finding it obvious.

Adam, you are right and I wasn't intending on mocking I w aas responding to his statement that it was obvious. I do not know his level of expertise nor did i make an assumption as to what it may be.

Fair enough, I'll turn off the snark.
