I got a kick out of this, and not only because it's a pet-peeve of mine. The lead even had the call, check out his body language when he sees the trail nabbed it, haha.

Wow.....just wow. Can't believe the IAABO would rule two technical fouls on this play. Asinine.

Oh, and the travel is Lead's call. Trail doesn't have primary on post traveling until we are in a frontcourt offense situation....in transition this is Lead's call. Trail should have a cadenced secondary whistle on the play if Lead misses it.

I doubt, or at least hope, they aren't saying they should have been called here. Just pointing out two possible violations. I say possible because I don't know on what planet you're ever giving a player a T for playing a dunk safe.

There is no way I'm putting air in the whistle for either the grasp which was done to avoid coming down on another player or the coach for being less than a foot out of the box.

Agree 100%.

I don't see any negative body language by the Lead. He just improperly cedes the call to the Trail.

I said check it out, not what it was.

How do you properly cede the call?

The guy being referred to as "Trail" seems to be the C to me. I'm pretty sure I detect the real T sticking with backcourt situation bleacherside before the ball is advanced.

We don't have enough information, but both the new L and C are on the same side of the court in this transition play, and I'd love to know why. No indication there was an "instant" rotation initiated by L on this play. He seems to have been there the whole time.

What am I missing? It's late, so I'm sure it's something.

Plenty of information. Watch where new lead is running from, so the guy trailing him should be the old lead/new trail. The C is just standing there and was never in the trail position. He's in the right spot for a press and it's his play if it crosses over in front of him.

Maybe you saw the coach and thought it was an official? The old lead is off the screen at the start.

When the call is in someone else's primary.
