very strange situation ... all of the players had enough basketball IQ to know that "the ball not hitting the rim" is a violation. Yet non of them had enough basketball IQ to grab a ball that is just sitting there and no whistle was blown.

If I'm the C or Lead I'm thinking about saying "the ball is live" if the ball ends up not going OOB.

Maybe to a bunch of sixth graders, but not to high school varsity players.

Hey, when it comes down to it, nobody can really get a handle on a bunch of sixth-graders, can they?
