I hurriedly looked through the rule book, but I could not find what was defined as "inside the cylinder". Maybe tonight after the Super Bowl I'll do an more extensive search.

4-6 "... cylinder which has the basket ring as its lower base."

Any part of the ball; any part of the ring.

In the video, benefit of the doubt ot the calling official.

In watching the replay, part of the ball is still above the cylinder, which is all that is required for BI as far I can find. (and confirmed by several posters)
