See. That's what's wrong with us officials. We won't call it like it should be called.

Put me down in the "wrong official" column too fwiw. I'd never dream of calling this particular violation at exactly the 10 second mark.
How do you call 3-second violations? Right by the book also?

Yes, I call it right by the book (NFHS & CBOA) and I use a 4 second count to be sure it was a legit 3 for the violation.
If the player is making an attempt to get out of the key, no violation and if possible or necessary, use preventive measures by warning the player(s) before reaching the 3 second violation.
What is the advantage?
The advantage gained by the offense changing the way a defense would defend if the offensive players were in the key longer than allowed.
Officials pre-game to include judgment calls to be the same through out the entire game, right?
