Sigh...I can already tell my arms will be tired this season. And I'm not even flying in from anywhere... |
I like the one about the replaced player only having 20 seconds now, with a buzzer at 15 seconds till.
So it will now go like this... "start the clock..." "what time is it?" BUZZZZZZZ!!!! "WHAT??" BUZZZZZZZ!!!! Seems a little pointless to buzz 5 seconds after you start it, IMO. And they have finally added a signal that a lot of people have been doing for years (including myself) the "if you were just 2 feet closer you would be getting the chop, signal" |

I can see this happening - A1 dribbles from the back court, I've got my 10-sec. count going. They cross the center line, I put my arm down, and B comes over to guard, but not close enough, so I hold up both arms. B steps closer, so I start a 5-sec. count. A1 starts dribbling, so I start another count with my other arm. When A1 backs up, I hold out both arms. Then B1 gets closer, so I start another count. A1 flips a pass to A2, who isn't being closely guarded, so I hold out both arms. Well, until B2 comes over to guard, then I start a count. Then B2 starts to dribble away, so I hold out both arms again... My arms are already tired and this is only in the first minute of the game! |
This seems rather significant:
4-42-5: Changing that a throw-in ends when the throw-in pass is "legally" touched by another player. It seems to me it will have ramifications for the arrow. Right? |
Quote:
AP throw-in. A1 releases the throw-in pass, which is immediately kicked by B1. Team A is awarded a throw-in for the violation and the arrow is not switched. |

Do we get to run down the court with our arms out? Maybe we can lift a leg and look like the Karate Kid. |

Maybe I can build up my arm strength for next season. :eek: |

Never mind. :D Actually, on one level, I agree with you - it does convey information. And, if it will now be an approved signal, I will probably start using it. My pet peeve is officials using unapproved signals when they didn't need to. If I was counting, it was a closely-guarded situation. If I wasn't counting, it wasn't. I didn't think it was necessary to not count, and give a signal as well. It was redundant. It was redundant. Get what I mean? Get what I mean? |
