Someone on our state's fanboy site posed this question...

		| As I was watching the game last night a player was trapped and had picked up his dribble and was having trouble finding a teammate. 
 He has 2 options...: call a timeout, [or]  try to throw the ball [off] the defenders leg and out of bounds...
 
 Could the player throw the ball off the ref and recover it with a new 5 secs.? Somehow strikes me as unsportsmanlike, but is it legal?

 Rather quickly, other fans came in to say the officals are part of the floor, and this would be an illegal dribble.  My question is, who has a technical foul for this?
