Some questions that I have been wanting answered and some questions from last nights varsity girl game:
What do you all think about during the fifteen minutes between walking on the floor and going through the anthem and stuff (besides doing captain meeting, checking for illegal uniforms, checking book, counting number of players, finding the flag, and looking for the hot girl in the stands--because I knew everyone was going to say that)?
I get so bored and I want to do things that will help me be focused and most prepared to start the game.
Situations from last night: girl gets hit and will be shooting bonus, she appears to be a bit shaken up although it did not look like much of a hit; coach comes out after couple seconds and then they substitute their best player to shoot the free throws; meanwhile player now looks fine
This has probably been discussed before but do we have any discretion to say "she looks alright now coach, she can shoot"; seems like so much room for Coach to abuse the rule, if your player acts at all hurt and is not great free throw shooter, just go out and get her
Second scenario: held ball, possession to blue; blue trying to bring ball in bounds, blue sets illegal screen before throw in completed; green ball; does possession arrow change or would blue still get next held ball; I believe blue would get it again although I have not relooked it up; follow up question: why? why have the rule that makes it so tricky, why not just say they set an illegal screen and so they blew their chance to have the alternating possession, why this technicality that the throw in must be completed or the alternating possession does not change?
Thanks for all input
