This violation has been ignored a lot for the past several years, becoming one of those "I hate to be the only one who calls this." If necessary, which hopefully it won't be, I can see myself being a pioneer now. Players in the lane while the ball is in the hands of the shooter is not something I think I can tolerate.

It's A Violation, Call It ...
Previous to the rule change, players in the lane while the ball was in flight was not something that I tolerated.

Inquiring Minds Want To know ...
What would make it more obvious on the release than on the hit?

Prior to release all non-participants have eyes on the paint. After the release almost all eyes are following the flight of the ball. Human nature.

Primary Coverage For Fans ???
Quote:
In any case, I don't care what the fans are watching. As an official I have my primary coverage responsibilities and that's what I'm observing. Of course, now, as the lead, instead of using my peripheral vision to watch for the hit, and listen for the hit, I have to get a good look at the shooter and his release.

I mean BENCH PERSONNEL. You know, where the coaches hang out. You asked what makes it more obvious and now you want qualify your question after the fact.
When have I ever took into consideration what fans think in anything I've ever posted Billy?

New Old Rule, Again ...
Quote:
The only important thing about the new (old) rule is what the officials are observing. With the exception of the lead getting a better look at the shooter, we're basically watching, and calling, the same stuff that we watched, and called, before. I have no problem with the new (old) rule, but I am of the opinion that the lead's job will be a little more difficult, having to get a clear view to watch the release by the shooter, whereas before, the lead could use his peripheral vision to watch for, and also listen, for the ball to hit. Now the shooter has to (almost) be in the lead's primary. I'm also a little apprehensive about several players, all crowded in the lane, all trying for a rebound, getting an extra second (flight of the ball) with the new rule. Unlike many on the Forum, I was officiating when we went from the release to the hit, and although it was wasn't a big change, it was a little easier to officiate with the "new" hit rule. Not by much, but it was a little easier. I do like the rule change for one reason, because, now, the high school, college, and professional, rule sets will all be similar for this situation. I'll adjust. I've adjusted to a lot of other changes over thirty-four years. I still don't see why violations will be more obvious under the new rule.

I agree with this, because I think of "obvious" as "obvious to the calling official", but I see BNR's point as "obvious to everyone in the gym, especially the coaches." Basically, more difficult to question. I'll add, though, that I've never really had a coach question this call (and I make 2 or 3 lane violation calls a year, probably), so I don't see a difference.
