How many times to you see a player fouled on the arm on a shot after the release of the ball? These get called all the time. Where is the advantage to the defender? The ball is already in the air. The contact has absolutely nothing to do with the path of the ball and doesn't affect its flight. Are you saying you never call this type of foul? I think you'd have a lot of PO'd coaches if you went strictly on whether there was an advantage gained and not by the rules as stated. |

I think you are trying to apply one situation with a completely different situation. Also just because there is contact on a shooter does not mean there was a foul. Sometime shooters are out of control and calling a foul on a defender even without the shot being blocked would be completely wrong to do. Remember, you and I do not work in the same places or with the same people. Remember that "regional thing" you talk about. Peace

Far be it from me to question the way anybody else calls a game, that's for sure. I'm just trying to broaden my perspective. However, who's to say that the incidental foul you won't call, couldn't have an adverse affect on the gameplay? Just because you don't see the advantage gained? I thought that's why the rules are there in the first place. |

I did not say that a block ends anything.
This is also what the rules say under 4-27-2 says, “Contact which occurs unintentionally in an effort to reach a loose ball or contact which may result when opponents are in an equally favorable position to perform normal defensive and offensive movements, should not be considered illegal even though the contact may be severe.” Now from my point of view an airborne shooter almost never going to have many shots blocked without some contact. So I guess in your point of view if a shooter is blocked cleanly with the ball and then part of the follow through by the defender pushes the arm of the airborne shooter, there should be a foul no matter what because the shooter is still airborne. Maybe that works in the girl’s game, but that does not work very well in the boy's game. Peace

I worked a tournament on Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving and 3 of the 4 games I worked had 7 footers on the floor. In 2 of the games there were 7 footers on both teams and multiple Division 1 talent on the floor. There were many blocks with contact by these players and if we would have called these fouls, we would have been run off the court. Of course there were a couple of times where there was a cry for a foul, but the coaches quickly backed off when they realized the same was being called when their 7 footer was given the same kind of call (or no call) with their defender. Quote:
I will also say this. I have not worked that far in the tournament. Also we do not work a Regional one year and the next year work the State Finals. Your system if likely very different than the system I work under and probably many other people that are reading this. If we use your logic, Teddy Valentine (I could give other examples) is not the official you are because he never worked a HS varsity game like you or I have worked. I think he has been on national TV a lot more than you or I have. Peace

Yet you said that contact after the shot that hinders a normal landing can be a foul earlier in this thread, correct? You denied that you were not saying that a blocked shot ends the airborne shooter protection, yet you completely contradict yourself with those two statements. An airborne shooter is an airborne shooter, contact that hinders normal movement is a foul and that is the same if the shot is released clean or the shot was blocked...that is what the rulebook says, you know the rule you quoted. And you threw out the girls ref snipe, so you get what you dish out...so rare that when backed into the corner by his BS, Rut pulls out his "resume" of all the 7 footers he officiates...lame, very lame...and it's lame in the great state of Illinois too. |

BTW, the two of the 7 footers were from other states. One of them is from the only Prep school in Illinois and all were going to Division 1 programs when they graduate. If I wanted to use this as a resume I would direct you to the web site and tell you where this was located. I have not done that because the only relevance this has to the conversation is what was expected of the officials that worked this tournament and other levels of ball. Just this week alone I worked with a 30 year veteran who worked multiple state finals, two college officials, one of them worked Division 1 in the past and the other worked a State Final a couple of years ago and we had several plays like I have described in this thread when a block occurred and nothing was called by anyone. So since state finals mean something to you, why did they pass on these plays? Were they wrong in their judgment too? Did they not apply the rule properly? Peace
