Throw-in after goal

[Alaska Ref]

First off, why after a made basket do we "take the ball OOB" because the ball is dead! Blow your whistle and get the players to take the ball OOB. This is a great way to "teach" and give's them the chance to fix the mistake, if that dosen't work then issue a formal "Delay of Game" warning! I aggree that is the only proper action to take at this point.

I believe this "preventive officating" will go a long way toward's the players, coaches and fans respecting you as a good offical.

Good Luck in 2001
