One more question, that occured last week during the game where I had my "OT Clock Snafu".
Twice, during the game, I called a foul for a defensive player for undercutting an offensive player that had jumped in the air for a rebound.
I don't recall if the coach of the defensive player had any comments for me after I called the foul the first time. However, he definitely had something to say to me after I called the second foul. He was yelling at me "He was just boxing out". My immediate comment back was: "Coach, your man undercut the other guy".
In any guess case, this is what I recall seeing. I see the offense put up a shot, a ton of players go to rebound. The offensive player jumps straight up to get the rebound while the defensive player keeps backing into the offensive player while he's in the air.
The reason I called the two fouls was I felt that if the defensive player had boxed out PROPERLY in the first place, the offensive player wouldn't be able to even get off the ground.
Anyone have any thoughts?
