Last night at the first round of the boys class 2A sub-state tournament, My partner is T and I am C. A kid recieves the pass at the elbow (away from C) pulls up for the three. I check my partner to see if I need to mirror his three attempt and as the kid releases the ball, I (along with the other 300+ people in th egym) hear a loud SMACK. I look at the defender and he is just standing there with his hand in the air. I had nothing (because I saw nothing) and my partner had nothing as well.
To make a long story short, at the next dead ball, our other partner who was under the basket, told The T that he had a great no call......appearantly, the kid smacked his leg with his off hand after he released the ball.

This has been discussed in other threads but basically you've just told us that 6 eyes were on the ball when it was clearly in the T's primary. Unless the other 8 players were in the T's primary this is wrong. Someone was getting held in the paint! Even though I wasn't there you can't really dispute that now can you?
BigGref, you can tell your roomates that NBC hasn't even had anything to do with the NBA for two years.

On the contrary my good friend. To glance over at a player who just received the ball doesn't constitute ball watching when the ball came out of L's primary. The next competitive match up for me (at C) was at the free-throw line on the other side of the paint. So, when I heard the slap, I glanced (you know, a quick look) to see if the kids arm had been hit or anything like that. I didn't follow the shot to the rim after that. I quickly located the paint and the nearest competitive match-up to ensure that there was no pushing and shoving going on underneath. I guess you had to be there to see all 10 kids on one side of the floor. That is why I wrote "to make a long story short."

Don't bother wasting your time. Our friend tomegun is from the "I'm not moving my eyes from this 5 square feet of shiny floor no matter what happens" school. The rest of us get what you're saying.
