No, not according to NBA rules (http://www.nba.com/analysis/rules_6.html?nav=ArticleList):
Quotee. On the following infractions, the ball shall be awarded to the opposing team out-of-bounds on the nearest sideline at the free throw line extended:
(1) Three-seconds (offensive)
(2) Ball entering basket from below
(3) Illegal assist in scoring
(4) Offensive screen set out-of-bounds
(5) Free throw violation by the offensive team
(6) Flagrant foul-penalty (1) or (2)
(7) Defensive three-seconds
( 8 ) Jump ball violation at free throw circle
(9) Ball passing directly behind backboard
(10) Offensive basket interference
(11) Ball hitting horizontal basket support
(12) Loose ball fouls which occur inside the free throw line extended
(13) Five second back-to-the-basket violation
So, that incredible act of athleticism resulted in the same outcome as if he just let it go out of bounds.
but it didnt enter from below...it went down into and thru the rim
the only way that wouldn't count would be if the dude was out of bounds when he threw it back, otherwise, it should count.
the net helped wrap it up over the rim, but that shouldn't be illegal.

While it didn't pass through the rim, "basket" is defined to include the net:
Quoted. Each basket shall consist of a pressure-release NBA approved metal safety ring 18" in inside diameter with a white cord net 15" to 18" in length. The cord of the net shall not be less than 30 thread nor more than 120 thread and shall be constructed to check the ball momentarily as it passes through the basket.
The ball seems to enter the bottom of the net, which whips it around to the top of the rim. Play stops as soon as the ball entered the net from below.
Correct. The net held it up and brought it back through. Quite amazing.
Play stops as soon as the ball entered the net from below
are you saying that other than the ball going into the basket...any ball that touches any part of the net will cause a immediate stoppage in play
counts to me.
remember when these broadcasters jinxed the eagles in the superbowl??

It is hard to see for sure, but it looks to me like the ball enters the net from below - otherwise, how would the direction of the ball chage? If it didn't go into the net, it would just swipe past it and continue to mid court.
The definition states that basket = net + rim. Ball enters net from below = ball enters basket from below.
Ball hitting the outside of the net is not the same as the ball entering the net.
im confused as to what youre saying...but the ball clearly went DOWN thru the rim...tho it did hit the net first

I'm saying that he threw it in bounds, the ball went into the net from below. The net "grabbed" the ball (the ball was stuck in the net), and swung it around from below the rim to above the rim. The ball then came out of the bottom of the net and dropped through the rim from above.
When the net "grabbed" the ball, the ball had "entered the basket from below" because the net is part of the basket.
right thats what i thought you were saying...but are you saying the play should have been whistled dead as soon as it got caught in/hit the net...or only when the ball went into the basket

The play should have been whistled as soon as the ball entered the bottom of the net. This is not the same as the ball touching the outside of the net.
