Two things...I am not a basketball official and chop is S20 Illegal motion.
I am in New Jersey and my crew (BJ) has held his hand up the last 5 seconds. We have done this for the past 4 years and Players/coaches love it. Never had anybody complain or think the back judge was signaling dead ball....
