Not sure about the ncaa but that rule used to be called incorrectly all the time. For at least the NFHS 44-4-5B tells us a player can slide for as far as their momentum carry’s them. Once stopped then can not roll over, or try to get up to their feet without dribbling, however they may sit up if flat on their back. The player also travels if they sit the ball on the floor and are the first one to touch it when they rise back to their feet. However, sliding with the ball is not a travel.Am I crazy or was there a time when a guy who slid across the floor, with the ball, it was called traveling?
I see that all the time and it rarely gets called anymore.
GBO!!
Lol we have missed more than half our free throws and fouling people from half court.Well go back on your phone and we'll enjoy this defensive struggle between two good teams...Some people just aren't made to watch basketball and I got me a feeling that would be YOU!....Go watch the Simpsons or something.
Thanks for setting me straight. I really thought that was a travel.Not sure about the ncaa but that rule used to be called incorrectly all the time.
