Once in lifetime I'm sure
Really saw this. Varsity Girls.
Ball inbound after made basket. Full court pressure. Dribbler fires pass across court - hits rim (accidentally) and it bounces back to her, and off she went again. Hummm -- not a legitimate try , its not her basket..... Walking? Double dribble? I was Center (3 man) and passed. Trail passed too. Right call? |

Illegal dribble

In the case you cite, the ball hits the backboard. In the play in this thread, then ball hits the rim. By rule, that does make a difference (I think). The end result in the play in the thread might be the same, but the timing should be (slightly) different.

In the OP the "dribbler fires a pass." So, by my reading, the dribble had ended. Even if she didn't catch the ball, it's still a violation to dribble again.

*A-1 dribbles, then stops. (One dribble.)
*A-1 "fires the pass", hits B's rim, and catches the ball. By rule, two dribbles, right?

4-4-5 A ball which touches ... the backboard is treated the same as touching the floor inbounds.
1-7 an 1-10 define backboard and basket (which includes the ring) differently. Maybe they mean them to be the same, but it's not what it says. Of course, since a try ends when the ball touches the floor, and the backboard is the same as the floor, ... |

I can understand the basket and backboard being separate entities in the frontcourt, but what could be the reasoning to do that with the backcourt? I have not been able to find a reference one way or the other.
