Re: Dan's point guard case

Also, I would have trouble with allowing a player in the lane for three seconds, then have the point allow the ball to bounce free for a couple of seconds, then start the three second count again. Doesn't seem to be the intent of this rule.
Even if the ball is bouncing at A1's feet for 6, or 8 or 10 seconds while A2 stands in the lane, I'm not going to call 3 seconds.

With regards to Dan's question, I'm not really concerned about this play. It's pretty irrelevant whether it's an ID or not. In the play that was originally posted, we have folks who are saying that we don't have an interrupted dribble. That's much more troubling.
