It is legal to touch the ring or the net if the ball is above the ring and not touching the ring, even if the ball is in the imaginary cylinder above the ring.

Touch, yes. Grasp, no.

So, if grasping is a T by rule, and it would basically kill the shot, why wouldn't, the answer be YES?

Also grasping isn't a T if done so to prevent injury.
