It's what the official called it. End of story.

I'll leave the thread open, but the OP would be wise to stop repeating the same thing over and over and over again.

The "official" in a pick-up game? Usually that's the guy that makes the first call or guy that yells loudest or maybe the guy with keys to gym or only decent ball

In pick up ball, a lot of rules as we know them are out the window. Most guys know this...ever tried calling a player control foul in a pick up game? You'd prob get laughed off the court.

ugh, dont get me started. we have at times counted out loud a guy who is in the lane for 17 seconds (we are old guys so chances for offensive rebounds are aplenty) he feels as long as he puts part of a foot out of the lane that negates it

Lane violations in pick up ball? What are you, a bunch of old lawyers and judges?

30 and over, but seriously, when an offensive player stands in the lane for literally 15+ seconds and doesnt move it gives an unfair advantage

we try to have some order to our chaos. it isnt a turnover but ball must be checked up

We need more opinions....

If A1 guarding B1 brings his feet together to prevent a pass between his legs and B1 who hasnt released a pass (B1 is old) tries to thread the needle between A1s legs and it hits A1 legs (which havent moved at all) is this a violation of the kicking rule?

What say you...?

I'm not calling a kick and rewarding bad offense
