Friday night boys varsity game tie score with 9 seconds left. Team B shooting double bonus Team A player walks right in front of me I am the trail official and tells his teamate to box out. Just as he turns to walk away my partner the lead, administers the first free throw. As soon as the player shoots and misses the freethrow the team B
coach starts screaming "thats a lane violation you have to call that. technically
he is right. but would you call that to decide such a well played close game. The shooter also missed the second freethrow and we went into overtime.What would you call?
IMHO, some of the worst and hardest to explain screw-ups are when we officials don't look or count before we administer the ball. That, too, is game management.
