10 second backcourt count

[TGR]

I believe that this is an item that needs to be discussed in the pregame conference. As a crew, we need to agree how we will address this issue. First, if you notice that the clock operator is not handling the clock correctly, you need to address that early. Second, as the T, when you are moving up court, you should also try to see the shot clock. If you notice a discrepancy, stop play immediately and address it. If you wait until the shot clock gets to 23 and still have not called anything, you are putting yourself and your crew in a bad situation. Finally, as a crew, we will need to decide if we want the C to come in and call the 10 second violation. That is considered a secondary responsibility of the C. Overall, I believe that the crew needs to discuss this in the pregame so the coaches, players, and spectators see that we are all on the same page.
