Follow up question

So when does the rule application end?

What if upon being fouled (and the whistle blown), A1 passes to A2 who then dunks the ball. Does the rule still apply and throw in will be at FTE?

Former NBA Refs

And among the former NBA refs, only Joe DeRosa is getting the love. Maybe Olandis and Tommy need a few more years back in D1 to get more assignments?

Also, is Lamont Simpson (not to be confused...

So it's illegal to set a screen OOB outside the endline but it's legal to go OOB to get around a screen established inbounds?

It looks like Ron Garretson has not gotten Finals assignments for at least the past 4 years. I know he's been there in the early 2000s. Any speculation out there why he's not? (I have been noticing...

Nice. It's good to know that I'm not the only one who notices the Malloy lean. Ed also dribbles the ball an excessive amount before giving it to the free throw shooter.

Traveling?

A1 is dribbling, slips but continues his dribble. His knees are now touching the floor. Is it a travel as soon as he stops the dribble? Or would this be similar to the rules when there is a scramble...

Player Out of Bounds

We all know (hopefully) that a player going out of bounds on his own is a violation. Of course, this does not include trying to keep a ball in play and momentum carrying him/her OOB.
