Screw ups (Doh!)
I am doing a game (14U) in Vegas for the Adidas 64 tournament. First 3 pointer of the game the kid goes up shots and misses and comes down and the defender put a hand in his stomach and pushes him to the ground. I call a shooting foul and as I report the coach asks kindly isnt that a foul after he finishes the attempt. I tell him I was distracted by out stupid the foul was and he is right and thank him for bringing it to my attention. I should have stopped the shots and gone with the ball out of bounds. I think one of the hardest things to judge is in the shooting motion or attempt is finished then a foul. I hope I get better at it.
