definition of verticality

In the definition of verticality (Rule 4), there is no mention of verticality with respect to the offensive player. That is, the rule clearly marks the vertical territory owned by the defensive...

If you want to distinguish a "block" from an "illegal screen", show the block signal and then indicate the new direction of the ball, then everyone knows that the foul is against the offense. ...

case when control is established

Generally speaking, this play is not a double dribble. However, a player may be closely guarded and may end up deflecting the ball in such a manner to keep the ball away from a defender. That would...

You know, I rather like the current alternating jump ball rule. It is fair! When a ball gets tied up, it is a 50/50 sharing of the ball (even!) - since one team cannot have half the ball, then the...

John - it doesn't work that way. This is a "double-whammy" mistake for B1. B1 gains the first possession by catching the ball as a jumper on the opening jump ball. Unfortunately, this is a...
