The dribbler recognizes the situation and returns to the BC to avoid the "trap".
The opposing coach gets loud, "That's over and back Ref! How can you miss it!"
My quick retort, "Coach, I'll call it when it happens!"
He gave me a perplexed look. As if he thought "I" was in another game.

In the time it took you to give the retort, you could have said, "Three points on a dribble, coach."
I prefer to explain the rule, if I can in oone or two sentences.
