I just got a call from an official with a question regarding the game they did friday night. Before I dive into my books, I thought I would put it out to all of you.
Situation: Lead calls a foul on a shot. He didn't think there was any way that the ball could have gone in the basket as B1 grabbed both of the arms of the shooter A1. He reports the foul and signals two shots. The trail tried to tell him right away that the basket went in. Well when the new trail took up his position for the free throw and signalled two shots the new lead said doubts crept into his mind (I don't know what his doubts were). Anyway, A1 shot the first free throw and everyone stood there with A1 rebounding the missed shot. She walked over and handed the ball to the lead official. Then they figured out that the basket had indeed been made. Awarded the two points to team A. What they aren't sure of is how they should have handled it from there. I'll wait awhile and give you what I think.

WOW!
