22. A-1 is holding the ball in the frontcourt and closely guarded by B-1.As the official count is at two,A-2 takes and holds a position between A-1 and B-1.Official discontinues the 5 second closely guarded violation count. Is the official correct?
I looked in my Basketball Case book a bit and was still a bit confused(again). IMO A-2 is screening for A-1.Preventing opponents from getting to the ball by using screening teammates becomes a violation in 5 seconds if the opponents are attempting to gain control(9.10.1 CASE situation). so,I think the referee in NOT correct to discontinue the count.Possibly covered in 10 ART. 1 b.
