If this was a high school game I would have approached it the same way -- Heres why I would not bounce the ball and issue a lane violation.
Both teams violated (team A did not fake team B in) so essentially there is no real advantage as both the offense and the defense were disconcerting to the shooter. And also as officials we should not be bouncing the ball to the shooter while players are adjusting themselves on the lanes. In high school if a coach or captain does not step in and tell his player to hold his spot that's their problem -- I ask once, twice then ring up the player that is the cause of this. [/QUOTE]
Part of our job is to perform preventative officiating activities and game management. Your ringing up will only get your assignors phone ringing and thus your phone ringing. If this is the way you choose to work, enjoy the many years of rec ball that will be headed your way. I realize this seems harsh but if you are going to T people up because you cannot gain control of your game by any other method, please don't bring the trainwreck that is your officiating career to my games.
Use some common sense!
