Rule:
Throw-In Violations 9.2.2 SITUATION A: Thrower A1: (a) causes the ball to carom from the wall behind him/her, or from the floor out of bounds and then into the court; (b) caroms the ball from the back of the backboard to a player in the court; or (c) throws the ball against the side or the front face of the backboard, after which it rebounds into the hands of A2. RULING: Violation in (a) and (b), since the throw touched an object out of bounds. The throw-in in (c) is legal. The side and front face of the backboard are inbounds and, in this specific situation, are treated the same as the floor inbounds.

What happened was C. It grazed the bottom side of the backboard. Correct call was made.

I definitely think it should of been reviewed, but it looks the right call was made, I don't think ball would stayed inbounds if it hit the back of the backboard.

Well we were up by 2 points, and it was like 1.4 seconds, so even if the called was reversed, its not like they could have won it...I don't think they even had a timeout...

Al saved us. Should have been going to him at the end of the 4th.

Watson and Tinsley had 0 TO's, 14 Assists, 3 steals, and 7 points. That isn't terrible, but its a good game for them, mainly Watson.

I would like Watson to continue to put up big nights, it really helps us win. If Watson didn't do what he did we wouldn't have won, we would have lost tonight if we was his usual old self, like on that road trip.

Still I don't understand how Burks is not in the line up. Its like he only gets minutes on the road. But with watson this good, I can't complain.


I can complain about Marvin's continued pathetic nights, Carroll is paid 10 times less, but puts up ten times more effort. Marvin had 2 TO's, 0/2 from 3pt, 2 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 block, then only put up 6 points @3/7.

While Carroll, who not only showed ten times better defense and with 4 less minutes, put up 9 points @4/5, 2 rebounds, 2 steals, 0 TO's, and got 1 assist. We already know Hayward did twice as much, but still doesn't start.

This is the only position that is completely out of whack. Kanter/Favors/Watson/Burks don't match up against their starters every night like Carroll and Hayward do to Marvin. Kanter/Favors are awesome, but when Jefferson and Millsap do what they did tonight its not replaceable.
