Actually calling the fouls for physical play in the post encourages players not to be so physical in the post ... location of the ball has little or no bearing on the situation. All you can do is react to what the players do and they react to what you call.


Question: if the ball goes out of bounds between the three point arc and the side line do you bring it back in to the middle between the lane and the three point arc?

you give a definative advantage given to the inbounding team if you do.

this is a big point of emphasis for me this year, directing where I want the ball inbounded after I make the call and inbounding the ball in the correct position, I got banged on hard last year about this at the NCAA level and I make sure I do it right now.
