Easy to say from the replay booth. It really isn't hard for a player in that situation NOT to get a T. Just toss the damn ball to an official. The calling official was behind him. He could have easily interpreted the ball slam as an expression by the player "about time foul called" or a taunt "we win" etc. Many things that fit an A. As a player you learn in the 4th grade slamming the ball is bad. Ideally, a T isn't called here but I don't put it on the official.

I wouldn't rely on delay of game. As i said, slamming the ball, rightly or wrongly, is viewed as bad. The official may have just reacted on that being unsporting. The ball wasn't caught until it bounced a few times. I don't think it was that bad but, as i said, easy to not get a T. Last edited by BigCat; Mon Feb 22, 2016 at 11:18am. |

Commentary certainly doesn't help.
It's weak, but it's there. I think I would try to avoid calling this if at all possible, but I think it could be justified. Because the phrase "Preventing the ball from being made live" is not well defined, is there anyone who would attempt to call this a delay of game? That not giving the ball to the official effectively "prevented the ball from being made live" on the ensuing free throws? Before the 'you're crazy' responses, I realize that that interpretation is a stretch, but I think it would be a great rule change to include things like this, that maybe don't rise to the level of a technical foul, but should probably still be addressed.

If I wasn't calling a T i'd tell him "don't do that…ever…" Another rule isn't necessary. |

The Kentucky player was looking in the general direction of two a&m players and says something that begins with an f bomb then throws the ball in the general direction of the a & m players . So maybe it was judged he was taunting them. He did say o shit immediately after throwing the ball.
When the three officials are huddled he says he slammed the ball on the ground, technical foul, unsportsmanlike conduct. Last edited by jeremy341a; Tue Feb 23, 2016 at 11:26am. |
