But that would be a T.

10-3 ART. 3 . . . Grasp either basket at any time during the game except to prevent injury; dunk or stuff, or attempt to dunk or stuff a dead ball.

Of course, the way around that is just to touch the net/rim as the ball gets there.

I might just happen to sneeze right at that moment and miss it, however.

Yeah, good point. I was thinking that, strategically, it makes more sense, but you really can't guarantee the refs call it if you don't make it obvious. Touching the net seems to rarely get called, and grabbing it would risk a T.

I'd retire on the spot.
