Of course, the crowd starts going nuts: "Whoa?...ahhh...yea!...huh?..." I happen to be in front of the table, so I blow it dead, tell the table to award the basket to B, and my partner gives it to A for the endline throw-in.

But the table ended up asking me a question that I didn't know the answer - who gets credit for the points in the scorebook? Obviously A1 doesn't get credit, but is it the nearest player for B? Or is it just credited to "the team"?

A ended up winning by 9, so it didn't affect the outcome, but I imagine her teammates will be giving her a hard time about it for a while. This was one of the few games where we could really say the game wasn't as close as the final score indicated...

It is just credited to the team and no player. Yea I seen the back of you head on TV last night. LOL

We had a good one. Ridgeview won by 6 or so but it was an up and down game the whole way.
