Last night I was working a senior high school boys wreck game. About 2 minutes into the game, my partners whistles A for a foul. As we are switching I ask A2 for the ball. He looks at me, then shoots it and I have to go chasing after the ball. Before I run it down, I hit A with a DOG.

Fast forward to the end of the game. There's about 45 seconds left, A down by 3 and they convert a fast break. While pressuring the inbounder, A3 reaches across the plane with both hands hindering B1 from moving along the baseline. I hit my whistle and call DOG #2 on A. Since this is a technical, I administer 2 free throws and my partner gives the ball to B at the time line.

The last part really has nothing to do with the situation but A is down by 3 with 15 seconds left, gets down the court and with B2 standing perfectly straight up, A1 decides to jump into him while attempting a 3 pointer. Team A, their coach and fans are screaming for a foul as B3 grabs the air ball and dribbles out the clock.

After the game I called one of my friends who is a long time official and officiates high school and small college basketball in the area. He said the only thing he might do different is since it was a 1 point game is hit the whistle after A crossed the plane and tell them to not do that. I believe that would give A an advantage in 2 ways, first it would stop the clock, 2nd it would give them a chance to set up their defense.

I'm curious as to what people's thoughts are on this situation.
