Actually the T always signals a good 3 point shot in 2 person and the L only gives a good signal when it comes from their primary. So if the shoot is at the top of the key and goes in and the T has the shot signal and if the ball goes in, that is the only official that should signal a good 3 point shot. This has been the mechanic as long as I remember the procedure. Peace |
Interesting.
The concern would be then on threes from the L's primary that you end up with four eyes on the ball in flight and none on rebounding action. Just another thing to go over in pregame. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

For example in our state we are to never bounce the ball on the end line under any circumstances. That is not the NF Mechanic from my understanding and has not been that case for a long time. So no, he would not have read the NF Mechanics unless he bought the book himself and it might not apply to what we do in the IHSA in certain situations. My understanding we use most of those mechanics, but in this case we do not have only the Trail giving a good 3 point shot if the shot came from the L. Peace |

That's why you pregame it. To eliminate the concern. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Page 24, mechanic #18. You really ought to read this book, along with the rules book and the case book every year, even if you can quote most of it from memory. Reference them again any time you find yourself wondering about something. |

As Lead, I give the 3-point attempt signal, and take care of the shooter. You will see the ball go through the hoop with your peripheral vision, (and the players next actions will be a huge clue as to whether the shot was successful). Once that a jumpshooter is back down on the floor, and not in peril of late contact from a defender, one's primary focus can shift to the rebounding and other actions, and the shooter and his/her defender become the peripheral. Some officials, having squared up to the floor to cover the 3-point attempt, will then rotate slightly towards the basket while continuing to "protect the shooter." Getting "deep" off the endline, and as wide on the endline as the shooter/defender match-up, can be very helpful in expanding one's field of vision, and maximizing the peripheral area to include the players further away from a primary match-up/shot attempt, and then, the shooter/defender match-up, as the main focus becomes the subsequent rebounding action. Less experienced officials tend to focus on a player, or a match-up, to the degree of not utilizing their peripheral vision/info. A more experienced official is able to relax and be aware of a larger area, including the missed/made shot attempt, while not losing his/her primary responsibility. |

I wonder how long some of these pregames are. If I have to tell a partner to take a jump-shooter to the floor in his primary, it's gonna be a long night. |

And not all shooters are contested either. At some point the L is going to have to get off of the shooter and go to basic rebounding action. There are some sacrifices, but let us not make it sound like the L never has an angle if the ball goes in or is totally aware. The players if nothing else tell us when the ball goes in by their actions. Peace |
