A regular Blazing Saddles campfire of player brain farts last night. Late in the fourth quarter and things are getting a little ragged. We are shooting the second of two free throws and miss. An opposing player gets the rebound and goes to put it right back up into our basket. One of my kids comes running over to challenge the shot and is about to foul the shooter. How do I know? Because I have a new grey hair for each and every time he has done it in practice and games this season.
At the last second he finally must hear my voice in his head telling him to contest shots but not to foul. He doesn't foul but he is successful at disrupting the shot - at our basket. Nice time for the lesson to finally sink in eh?
By the way, would this have been a shooting foul?
