Comment on Would it count in basketball, if a player found themselves directly under the hoop, threw the ball up through the hoop from underneath, and the ball fell back down, again through the hoop?

  I have no idea of basketball rules. So if a player throws the ball upwards through the opponent’s hoop, they lose a point?

    Yeah but thats for both teams rings tho, they had to impliment it after Yao Ming kept standing under the ring and puting the ball up through the ring over and over during a game.

      Who cares if your team got zero points as long as the opposing team got -300 points. Bigger number still wins.
