Why does the state want teams to use a different ball in the playoffs than during the reg season? Does anything go during the regular season and that is a way to make sure all teams use the same ball during the tournament?

During the regular season the home team is responsible for providing the game ball. This is the first year the Wave has been used. We were using the Reebok, but that ball isn't very good. Interesting thing. Last year home team didn't have any Reebok balls, had some Wilsons. visiting team said that the official ball was the Reebok, and we had to use it. Wanted to use his. I told him no, only during the playoffs. He got mad said we were wrong. So we started with the Wilson. He was up 22-0 before home team scored. Then the next day he called me and said we were right. He called the State Association.

Yeah, he scored on his own team. I did a frame-by-frame. The ball passes through the basket with 0:01.6 on the clock. Poor kid.

Yup, I agree - ball was completely through.

Not only does the shot beat the horn, it appears there was still .9 secs left on the clock.

The people near the camera are hilarious:

"I'm about to get something amaaaaazing."
"ESPN"
"Yuuuup"
"Oh, they in a zone."
SHOT GOES IN
"Oh, he stooopid."

LOL

What's crazy is it looks like they executed just what the coach drew up. Why would they be inbounding it toward the opponent's basket? That makes no sense. Poor kid.

Here's the still. The arrow is the ball after it passed through the goal.

Yikes. Poor kid. This would probably be the only time you'll hear a coach insisting that his guy travelled.

What's more: A friend of mine sent me this link via a Deadspin story. The story's headline and text said the kid scored in his "own basket." I emailed the author to politely point out his error.

His reply: "I'm sure you're absolutely correct, but I think I'm going to leave it. 'His Own' just sounds so much more natural, as if it's the one his team defends." Double yikes!

story on it
Hugo's Trey Johnson not alone with pain | News OK

I had this happen, although not as dramatic and in a JV game. I learned about rules concerning a wrong basket attempt after that!

Team A was up, inbounds pass and player went wrong way and got fouled in the act of shooting and the ball went in. Now, not knowing the rules and it was really close whether or not the ball was in or not, we counted the basket and then had the player go back to the correct end and shoot FTs. I can't remember if it was 1- like an And 1 play, or the correct way which would be bonus.
Anyways good learning experience and bonehead plays can happen at any level. Luckily, for the player his team won the game.

Couple of interesting comments after the article.


The rule should be changed to out of bounds if you score in the wrong basket to keep this absurdity from happening.


Is it possible for the other team to decline the points?
