My guess, however, is that they really said:

Whereas Refereeing 101 says "if you see <s>illegal</s> contact, its a foul," Refeering 201 says something like "if you see contact, depending on the severity of the contact and the effect on the player <s>outcome of the play</s>, it may or may not be illegal contact and thus a foul."

If this comment had a "Like" button I would click on it.

I hate it when I would hear an evaluator says that you shouldn't have an 'and 1' or that if the shot goes in then there is no foul. Stupid way of thinking that has more holes than swiss cheese. If you feel a foul should be called then call it. There is allowances in the rules for what happens when there is a foul on a shot and the ball goes in. There is no allowances for there cannot be a foul *if* the ball goes in.

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

In soccer, a trifling foul is one that does not have a significant impact and can be fairly ignored. In basketball, just as in soccer, the amount of contact that can fairly be ignored as not having a significant impact is dependent on the level of play.

In soccer, advantage is not about whether the attacker maintained an advantage, but whether the team of the victim of the foul is better off continuing to play than having the foul punished.

Your points are well taken. The parallels I was drawing in my head weren't so parallel after all.

I just hate a late whistle on an And-1. I've seen officials blowing after the ball is already going through the hoop.

How can you say that. If you watch high level college games and NBA games, you'll see that the top guys never call a foul if the ball goes in and there really is no such thing as three point play from inside the arc:eek: . . . oh, wait . . . they happen all the time every game . . . never mind . . .

I'll agree with this one. Unless a person is put into the bleachers, I'm not calling it if I waited that long -- and then I shouldn't have waited that long.

If that is their normal delay, but the shot happens to be that close the basket, I'm not so sure it is a problem. I'm not that slow, but if such an official is consistent with the timing of all of their other calls, I don't think there is a problem.

+1. By the way, Rich, did you get the PM I sent you a while ago?

Not sure why but I feel compelled to add to this thread for some reason. I'm all about seeing the whole play, but there are some fouls that are just clobbers that are easy to call immediately. And if a skilled player manages to fight through it and score anyway, then all power to them.

The other type of foul where you get a few and-1s is mid- and long-range jumpers. Either the arm/elbow gets hit, or the airborne shooter gets interfered with and you blow the whistle to protect said shooter. In both cases you can't really wait to see if the basket goes in because the shot is in the air too long; by the time you see the result, your whistle would be too late to have any credibility.

I agree with this totally, I do however believe that we can look at the shot the offensive player got off for clues as to whether contact put them at a disadvantage. An offensive player who is bumped and then continues with a clean step and layup which just happens to miss doesn't automatically trigger a foul for me.

Along the same lines, I have come in with a late whistle on a jump shot when I don't "think" the player got hit but there was a possibility and then the shot ends up 5 feet short. (This only happened when I was out of position just this one time...)
