of course I wasn't being serious about the half court shot, but my point is, alot of players today, moreso in the boys games have that jump pass where they appear to pull up to take a jumper, but are really faking that in order to pass to a teammate. And of course I never saw the play so you may have been right on with your call, my point is that if that ball gets passed off at the end, you better be 200% sure that he would have shot had he not been fouled, since we don't want to award freethrows that aren't merited either. We have all probably called shooting fouls where the player gets hit on the arm when the ball is still below his waist in the post and the contact forces him not to get the shot up, and in that situation, maybe he was actually going to pass, we never go to see the end result. . . . in this situation however, we did see the end result. . . he passed the ball. . . just use your judgement, but as I said, be sure you were right. . . .and as far as what the coaches think, you are right, who gives a s***
