Re: a 5 second call. I have always understood the rule as a player cannot, while closely guarded, hold the ball for 5 seconds or dribble for 5 seconds....but they could do both. For ex: A1 is closely guarded and is dribbling. The count gets to 4 and then he picks up his dribble. At this point, a new 5 second count would start. My partner last night said that they have 5 seconds to either get past the defender or pass the ball. I think he was wrong, I even looked at the rule book again last night. What do you guys think?

Why say anything about the nature of the foul to the table...Color, #, foul signal, and the # of free throws - if any...just show the "illegal use of hands" signal and don't say anything...
