Respect man. Respect. Take care of business.

I've been very frustrated this season and last in getting partners to clean up handsy on-ball defenders. It is really detrimental on smaller high school courts where the ball-handlers have less room to operate and in games where ball-handlers aren't as skilled.

Why is your buddy making a statement that boxes one into a corner? Just go out and officiate the game. There should not be any hands on the Ball Handler.

Ok, I gotta give you guys credit you are way to patient with Mr. #olderthanklook. I had to go get my boots on after post #38 where he posted the text from the alleged guidance issued by his state. I’m calling BS on it.

I have two questions I’d like answered about this :

1. What state issued this guidance?

2. Give us the name of the person who penned this guidance so it can be verified.

For the rest of the group, I’d love to hear someone else from whatever this state occurred in to verify this too.

I’m sorry, I just don’t buy it. I mean really, can anyone here imagine walking into a gym on a Friday night and starting a game with two shots and the ball because a player in that game had dunked during halftime of a game on Tuesday night in which they were not a participant? Really?!?!?

To each his own, and when in Rome ...

I've got my pregame speech down to the bare minimum. After the handshakes, fist bumping, kissing, and introductions: Players legally equipped. Players wearing uniforms properly. Practice good sportsmanship. Got anything else (partner). Have fun.

Period.

You'd have to have that conversation with him. I've never felt boxed in.

Well, that is not the actual rule where it says "no hands" on the ball handler at all.

And I would not feel boxed either if that is the way to convey to the players what they should not be doing.

Heck I say "hands, hands, hands" when a player even gets close to a ball handler. I only call a foul when the rules say it is a foul. And no I do not give a darn if the coach hears me either.

Peace
