2nd video - appears 0 white asks for timeout before 5 second violation.

The 5 second violation seems a little sketchy to me. It appears the official only does 4 counts, and even blows his whistle after the ball is released.

If you have the violation, then go with the violation regardless of the release of the ball. But the count did seem rather quick.

ESPN: With 15:59 remaining in 2nd half, AZ player initially called for a flagrant 1 foul. After review, downgraded to common foul. F1 in my mind.

About 5.5 seconds based on my count.

ESPN: With 9:47 to play, Trier(AZ) makes a full-court layup and teammate grabs rim/net as ball still in net. Nothing called but looked like obvious BI.

ESPN: With 3:22 (think) to go, drive down left middle and T ref calls a block, via restricted area, on secondary defender. Was the secondary defender in the air or grounded?

Play 1. OOB. It appeared that the UCLA player knocked the ball away from the Arizona player but that it may have rolled off of the UA player's fingers last. Not conclusive on the video, so they must stay with what they had.

Play 2. Great job on the timeout. Great awareness by the L. I couldn't tell which whistle was sounded first. The L's reaction, like many to timeout requests, was almost certainly delayed and thus the recognition of the timeout would have been first.

Play 3. Another good call. Possession certainly didn't change.

Are you saying the L should have called that instead of the timeout? :p😉

Rich

No, but his count WASN'T fast.....that's what I was saying.

4. close play but I'd have to go with a block
5. Travel

Play 4- I don't think the defense did anything wrong, charge.
Play 5- Travel, but admittedly, I might miss this one live, that was a pretty quick move.

That move was sloppy enough that I would have called the travel and have.

Sorry, it would have been the Arizona game late Saturday night pacific time on ESPN.

Broken record time:

Play 5, by rule, is a travel. 99% of spin moves to the basket are travels.

That said, "the game of basketball", in practice, has decided that that is a legal move. And I'm not going to be the only official calling it, so I'm passing just like they did.

In regards to the travel. As advised by many here, if you need it in super slow mo to pick it up we probably aren't calling it.

I have always been an advocate of getting all of the travels even if it meant getting a couple of close ones wrong. I am aware that is puts me in the minority here in the general officiating universe so I do my best to act as Rome would have me act.

Problem with these sorts of plays is when the dribble ends? If I'm officiating the defense and there is traffic and he starts to pull the ball for a psin dribble then curls his arms/scoops the ball. That can be a hard get . . . back to my intial point. If i'm not sure without replay, most people I work with or for don't want you calling it.
