Re: You got it Chuck.
Just weighing in...
I HAVE seen a similar play called as a T. During a dead ball, a player (frosh boys) took a quick shot, and whack.
Nevertheless, I agree with the restraint suggested by most. Another interesting angle is that the rule cited specifically prohibits *practicing* but does not specify that it is *shooting* practice. I am fairly confident that if a player took a little dribble between his legs before passing us the ball, none of us would T him for "practicing his ballhandling." Thus I think it is necessary to do a bit of interpretation of the reason for the rule and the spirit of the rule and to decide whether we would really be improving the game by calling the T.
