Coach didn't like violation call
Tie game with about 10 seconds left. Visiting team inbounding ball endline backcourt. Five second violation. Home team inbounding ball under own basket. Five second violation. The coach didn't like the call because thrower released ball before I blew my whistle. My partner told me this coach was a former official. I explained to the coach that the ball becomes dead on the violation. Not on the whistle. Would anybody handle this differently? Visiting team drove the court to win the game. No OT.
