I usually see the player in the paint, and depending on the action, will just call it or not. Maybe it's just me, but I have too many other things on my mind other than counting to 3 or 4 or 5.

Exactly right thumpferee!

I've done about 40 games this year and haven't called one 3-second violation yet. It's too easy to prevent and too many other things are going on that are more important to look for.

Just my 0.02. If the player ignores my warnings though I'll blow it. I think there are a lot of parents that have stop watches on that every time down the floor. I love ignoring their requests!

First post here btw, I love this place. Great learning tool here! Thanks to all of you that provide so much useful information.
