Interesting Scenario
Hi all,
Here's an interesting scenario that occured about 3 years ago in a local boys CYO playoff game I was working (either 6th or 7th grade):
Team A is down 1
Team A is out of timeouts
Team A fouls Team B with between 1 or 2 seconds left.
Team B is in the Bonus - I believe they were in the double bonus
Team B makes 1st free throw.
Team A then does something interesting. Because they were out of timeouts, the coach had his players "violate" the lane intentionally in case the second free throw was missed. Well, the poor kid from Team B wasn't trying to miss but he did. Alas, he got plenty more of opportunities thanks to Team A's "violations". The kid finally did sink one (after what seemed like an eternity).
Team A tried a long distance pass for a last second shot but they couldn't get it off and the game ended.
The coach from Team A mentioned that this was something he saw that a local high school coach employed.
Any thoughts? I don't think it's "illegal" in the book, but definitely an unusual situation.
