Is Next Year Bucky's Most important In The Last 19?

[brewcity77]

The clock starts on a missed FT when the ball is touched.

But doesn't it have to hit the rim? I'm almost positive there's something about contact with the rim in there. Here's what I was referring to, though these are from rules a couple years ago:

The free-thrower fails to release the try within 10 seconds and in such a way that the ball enters the basket or touches the ring or flange before the free throw ends.

So according to that, the ball has to enter the basket or touch the rim or back-rim before the free throw ends. Then below that is this:

When a violation is by the free-thrower only or the free-thrower's teammate only, no point shall be scored by that free throw. The ball shall become dead when  the violation occurs. The ball shall be awarded at a designated spot nearest to where the violation occurred, unless another free throw is to be awarded.

So if Hayes whips it off the backboard, it would be a free throw violation and Florida would get the ball at the nearest spot to the violation.

This prevents players from whipping the second free throw off the backboard as hard as possible to rebound their own attempt. Hayes had to hit the rim for it to count. If someone is better at interpreting the rules, please enlighten us, but I'm pretty sure he had to put it on rim to count there.

No you are correct.  If his second FT doesn't hit the rim, it would have been a dead ball to Florida.

You are correct, ball has to make contact with the rim. You are also correct in assuming that it isn't actually that easy of a task to purposely miss a free throw while still hitting the rim.

The Warriors will crush the rodents next year.  End of story.

Koenig, Hayes, Brown, and Showalter.

Combined:

Minutes 113 (56% of the 200 minutes per game)
Points 43.2 (59% of the 73/game they average)
Rebounds 13.4 (36% of the 37 per game they average)

I am surprised those stats are not much higher than that.

I agree with this analysis.

i can't believe that some folks (heisey/kenosha) don't get that a lot of us don't live in WI and don't give a rip about other WI school's basketball programs. 

A lot of us don't live in Chicago.  We don't complain about the endless Cub/Cutler/Blackhawk/Bulls (when they are winning) threads.

Aren't those in the Superbar though?

Another one worth revisiting in light of yesterday's game.

Brew and Wades mocking your well analyzed and apparently prescient post. LOL.

I believe Stretch deserves a shout-out for his prognostication.



I, on the other hand, will admit that I was simply jumping on his bandwagon with gold-colored glasses.  I had no idea that it was going to be a beating, nay a slaughtering, nay a decapitation and piking.
