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......
You are the one speaking in absolutes, not me.

I clearly stated an every game scenario:

A1 is attempting a try.

A1 begins his/her shot with their right foot touching the 3 pt line and their left foot completely behind it.

During this jumper A1's right foot leaves the floor slightly ahead of their left foot...slightly means before, where it is barely perceivable and not blatantly obvious, IOW no Karate Kid stork stance.

Are you ruling that a 2 or a 3?
