quick question...if you recieve a techincal foul and your team is over the bonus, does the technical foul count towards the bonus? there was an incident in a game that i was in where my team was over the bonus and we commited a foul to stop the clock, then i got a technical for arguing the call. so the ref gives the other team 2 shots for the bonus, 2 shots for the tech, but then he gave the other team an extra 2 free throws saying that the tech counts towards the bonus and they get 2 more. didnt sound right 6 throws in one play? get back to me please, thanks.

Maybe you deserved it ?
 

No, the other team should have gotten only 2 for each foul over 10.

However, because of your unsporting act maybe the official T'd you again and you didn't even know it?

mick :(

Your opponents should get 2 FTs plus ball at half court. That's it.

I will raise you, 4 FTs and the ball at half court. Presuming by bonus you mean 10 fouls and not 7 fouls.

Sounds like someone doesn't quite know exactly what "counts towards the bonus" means. That's what I get for thinking that it's self-explanatory.

Wow, amazing (if true) lapse in logic.

Huh? Why would you be arguing if you wanted a foul to be called and one was called?

Actually, if the official would have called this properly, the bonus would not be a factor at all.

Two shots for the intentional foul for fouling just to stop the clock, two for the technical then the ball at the division line.

There are places which don't use straight high school rules that give 2 shots plus 2 points plus the ball. Perhaps this was in a place like that and the ref was confused? Or perhaps this venue does have an extra penalty for T's when you're in the bonus?

He said his team was over the limit and the opponents were in the bonus. THat means we're shooting eith 1&1 or 2 shots for the foul and two shots for the T, plus the ball at the division line.

That was my first reaction.

Maybe they awarded 2 extra FTs on general principal...principle...because they felt like it

(Juulie! Where are you? Help!!)

Only a few seconds behind. Don't you have a dictionary?

Principal...tries to be a pal. Principle ... to follow PLE.ases God.

That's what my dear, departed Grandmother taught me.

Need any more?

Let's see...

I/me I went to the store; so, She and I went to the store. They gave me a reward; so They gave her and me a reward.

For further information, consult an old English teacher. Heaven only knows what they teach the new ones.

You shoulda known that was coming.

My first reaction was that osantos22 has a great future in the game- as a coach.

Sorry, Coach. Couldn't help myself on that one either.:D
