Hello I'm Richard on behalf of expertvillage.com I'm going to try to explain a legal shot in the game of nine ball. A legal shot according to the VNA rules is either pocketing a ball or after contact with the lowest object ball of the table any object ball or cue ball must contact the rail. Here is a example of the first part. Pocketing the ball legal shot; come back around, contacting the ball either the cue ball or a object ball contacting the rail. Legal shot. Also when shooting at the lowest number of the ball shooting at the two ball as long as any other object ball doesn't go to the rail would be consider a legal shot. In the case the four ball. Also the two ball reached around.
