I'm shocked that the directors, officials, and teams all knew that the baskets were a full foot out of place and that it wouldn't take that long too fix it, yet did nothing about it ...

Agree. And I'm as shocked as you.

What struck me as particularly shocking was the cavalier attitude of the executive director. Not a word of explanation why the hour delay was unavoidable. And to essentially ignore the shooting percentages?

What is the point of the referee's responsibility, under 2-4-1, to "inspect and approve all equipment, including court"?

Ha,
we waited for 30 minutes yesterday for a goal to be hand cranked for a middle school basketball game after the motor broke. The concession lady treated us nice!

I've even been one to help crank the silly thing or to grab a rake in softball to try to get a game in or get it finished. Seems very odd they couldn't take an hour to get this corrected.

Yet no one thought of an obvious solution, put tape down a foot inside the normal ft line

That's not a good solution.
Are you also going to move all of the marked lane spaces? Are you also going to move the 3pt line?

Sure why not

I can either move everyone down a space or tape em too

same with 3...either play with as is or tape it

EVERY FT is shot at 15...not every three is shot at 19'9

In fact i would say a large percentage of 3pt shots in hs games on college courts are shot behind the college 3 anyway
