Couple of quick questions about situations that came up in recent games:
1. Substitution - Starting the 4th quarter A1 has the throw in and does so properly and takes a shot and B1 rebounds and heads upcourt. During this time some of the crowd is yelling that A only has 4 players - there had been confusion at the A bench starting play with players slow to return to court etc. After the shot A coach must have noticed that they only had 4 players on court and another player just "joins the action" - no reporting etc. I was the lead going down with B1 but saw it as did the trail and center officials. No one blew a whistle. We discussed it at the first dead ball and it was generally agreed that we had blown it by putting the ball back in play with only 4 players on court. Not sure I was comfortable with that but really had no effect on game but probably could or should have given technical right?
2. Intentional foul - A1 has clear break away and is intentionally fouled by B1 during layout. Ball goes in. Do you count the basket plus give 2 free throws plus the ball back to A1? Potential for 6 or 7 point play? Where is throw in spot? In the actual game we had the foul but ball didn't go in but made me wonder.
Thanks for any feedback.
