Other Chuck,when the official put the ball on the floor for A's free-throw,and the A shooter wasn't in the semi-circle,you have an automatic violation.You call it when the 10-second count expires.If the foul-shooter enters the semi-circle,or any A player breaks the plane of the 3-point line and the foul line extended to try and enter a marked lane space,that is a seperate violation and is called immediately.Note that even if A or B calls another time-out,that just delays the calling of the first violation on A.References are casebook 8.1.3, 9.1comment & 9.1.7,along with rule 9.1.Let me throw this into the mix,however.What do you call if you've started the 10-second count on A,and a B player in a marked lane-space violates by stepping over the line?
