You should be aware of the time on the clock. No need to call a foul unless it was very obvious and you want to reward free throws to a kid that maybe never sees the floor.

Disagree. Don't give up on the game just because the winner has been determined. Call the foul, if time expires while you do it, so be it.

So if there is a little touch foul or perhaps a small pushing foul on a rebound with about 2 seconds left, you would call that?

Sorry, but I'm not going to do that. Unless the other person was severely fouled and it was very noticeable, I'm not calling that and we are getting out of there.

To each his own.

I will call whatever foul takes place. If the clock runs out, it runs out.

Peace

Yes, I would call it.

But, if you change the wording to "So if there is a little touch or perhaps a small push on a rebound...." then I would not call it (regardless of the time left).

See bob's comments.

The way I'm picturing your description, I generally don't call those anyway. I'm going to call the fouls the same all game, but I may not actually report it if time expires as I call it.

A rebounding foul as time expires may get ignored with the same threshold I'd use to ignore a rebounding foul as a shot goes in or if the "fouled" player gets the rebound anyway.

Yes that is the point I was trying to make and I worded it poorly. I think we are in agreement.

In this situation, it was an obvious foul. I probably could have elaborated that it was a transition play as well so its not like everyone was sitting around waiting for the game to expire. In the order of play, it went shot, foul, whistle and within a half second the horn went off. I would hate to be on the other end of situation like that where the clock operator anticipated a foul, stops the clock and now you got nothing. Or even better yet, not realize there was actually 3 seconds left on the clock and not call anything, meanwhile the ball goes out of bounds and you have really compounded the issue.


I am not really arguing the merit of "calling a foul" merely asking whether you would go report this to the table or simply call it ball game and head off to the locker room.

Clock operator anticipating a foul? I've never noticed this happen when I didn't have a whistle.

If there's time on the clock play it out like any other foul during the game. If it's the end of the game I really don't think it matters and it's personal choice. I've done everything from showing a foul and then saying game over to just reporting the foul. Really depends on what's going on.

We're not supposed to shoot FTs if it doesn't change the outcome of the game. I'm doing it the same way ever time to not give a team an advantage over another. Changing the rules to help a team for point differential on post season is hurting whatever team they are tied with.

Not that it matters in this context where the result wouldn't be affected, but if the referee is aware of half second from whistle to buzzer, wouldn't that be definite knowledge that, by strict application of the rules, would require the time to be put back on the clock -- and thereby result in the FTs being taken?

Only if someone looks at the clock before the horn. You don't only need definite knowledge that "something" should be added, you need at definite knowledge of an amount of time (even if it's partial).

I know that pretty much every official in the area where I work, would just walk away and not report it.

That's probably how I'd deal with it, too.
