I botched my first backcourt call in over four years tonight.
Blue on offense, Black on defense. I am trail.
A player for blue beats his defender with the dribble at the top of the key. He reaches the free throw line and pulls up for a jumpshot. Just as he reaches the apex of his jump and prepares to release the shot, a second defender comes from the side and swats the ball from his hands. The ball goes behind the shooter's head and bounces on the floor near the top of the key. This defender for black continues in his path and is just about to scoop up the ball, when the original shooter spins around, dives backward, and bats the ball into the backcourt where a waiting teammate of his catches it.
Thinking that a shot was attempted and blocked, I let play continue. Shame on me.
Hopefully someone on the board will learn from this play. I know I did.
