Clark,
I watched the clip again this time focusing on officials, the only thing that I noticed is on the free throw, the trail official is not watching the three players that are in the backcourt because he's too close to the shooter. I was taught to hang back by the division line so I can see the remaining players if some are away from the front court during a free throw. The last varsity game I was working, my partner actually saw and called the foul on a player for kneeing his opponent right in the arse! This foul occurred behind the division line during a free throw! Great catch! I hope to see some more of your excellent videos like last year. It has been a great help to me to see what everybody else sees and hear how reffs (not time keepers) would call particular fouls, violations, etc. Good Luck! LW
