We don't? So do you allow unlimited trash talk? Do you allow any sort of verbal threats because no physical advantage was gained? I can see it now...A1 at the FT line and B2 walks near him before shooting calling him, loudly, every name in the book, making comments about his religion/ethnicity/gender/sexual orientation and promising to meet him in the parking lot after the game if he makes it. Team A coach inquires and you say "There was no physical advantage gained and A1 needs mental jujitsu." Should go over well. I know, I know, to extreme. Forgive me.

As more and more contact is specifically called out as infractions the onus goes away from "judgement" and to just call the contact a foul. This, of course, does apply moreso at the college level, however HS can benefit quite a bit from this too.

If it doesn't create an advantage, is it a foul by rule?

"A personal foul is a player foul which involves illegal contact with an opponent while the ball is live, which hinders an opponent from performing normal defensive and offensive movements."
On a made free throw, there aren't many offensive or defensive movements which you can hinder. If you want to call minor contact that leads to no advantage, be my guest. But any camp I've ever been to would ding you for not having a more patient whistle and charging a "nothing" foul. You're better off calling the severe contact that makes everyone in the gym go "WHOA" and leaving the game interrupters like this alone. And yes, it is possible to do that and still be within the spirit and intent of the rules. |

You, yourself, said the words "by rule", yet reverted to what you were told in camps. Yes, camps are a great source for us, but again... You said "by rule". We're not robots, nor should we be, so I understand what you and others are saying. I'm just clarifying that advantage/disadvantage is not in the rules. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk |
