It is funny if a defensive player running out of bounds knocks the ball back in bounds, even with no real control over the ball, if the offense recovers they call it a change of possession and reset the shot clock, but you can back tap all day and it isnt possession.

Yeah that seems some BS to me but them the rules.

Cline will go to his grave lamenting missing that second free throw with 15 seconds left in regulation.

That shot to equalize.... Unreal

At least we know who we want playing Duke if it comes down to a last second tip in.

Once the ball hits the rim there is no possession. It's now a loose ball. There's nothing wrong with the rule.

It's like people screaming for over the back. There is no over the back foul as there's nothing against the rules about jumping higher than the other guy. The correct call is pushing if it occurs.

I would have broken many things if my team lost in that fashion- the lead, the comeback, the free throw, the foul, the backtap and then that pass and shot. Heartbreaking for the Purdue fans.

They provided 2 damn good games.

It's amazing that most basketball fans still seem to think that "over the back" is a foul.

I call that BS and arbitrary as if it hit the rim and went out of bounds it's the defense's ball. I'm not saying that your interpretation of the rule is bad. I just think the rule sucks. Why should the offense be rewarded for slapping it into the back court but when the defense does it resets possession for the offense allowing them to grab it? Seems silly and arbitrary to me.

looking like the game will have a second half i don't watch.

If I was Painter and my team lost like that I'd commit Seppuku midcourt

It’s not my interpretation of the rule. It is the rule.
