Sooooooo......what timing criteria are we supposed to use to determine what interval is needed to make the shot a 3 or a 2? Iow, what is a "split second"? And why is it only a "split second" and not longer? If there's a 0.3 seconds difference between the foot on the line coming up and the foot behind the line coming up, does that make it a 2? If there's a one-second interval between the feet coming up, is it a 3 now? If the player stands on the one foot behind the arc like a stork for 10 seconds or so, and then goes up, is that a 2 or a 3?
Just wondering how you want us to call this play......
