Early in the game my partner blow the whistle for a double foul. Only problem it that the other official has not handed the ball to the thrower-in.
Thus this is a dead ball foul. (If actually a penalizable foul at all). I say nothing and just continue game with POI.
Begining of 4th quarter. Before I bounce the ball the the thrower-in, this same official calls another dead ball foul
. but this is just a single foul. Luckly the foul is on the offensive team (No free throws)
I gather with both other officials an explain the situation. I give him 3 choices.
1-Play on as if a normal foul. Tell table/coaches that the arrow will not change and no free throws.
2-Tell table/coaches that the foul is not applicable since the ball was dead and the action was not Intentional. Thus no foul and back the AP throw-in.
3-Tell table/coach that this is a dead ball foul. Thus Technical foul
.
We went with #1
No one complained and we discussed the play in the locker room at the end of the game.
