I know that in this situation it is a T but does anyone think that the rule should be changed to BI, this ruling like the voluntarily leaving the court T seem to be a little harsh.
In the BI case say a rookie official knows the rule but does not have a patient whistle and the kid smacks the backboard and the basket goes in. Now you have to count the basket give the same team two free throws and the ball at the division line. That could get pretty ridiculous. That in itself is a possible six point swing, instead of calling BI where if the rookie official with no patient whistle calls the same play as above BI whether it goes in or not does not matter, it is BI and two points regardless and the ball is awarded to the other team.
This is JMHO though, but until the rule is changed I will more than likely go with a no call because I don't want to have a possible six point swing on my shoulders.
