Hello! I think I've finally found a place where I can ask those questions I've always wondered about but were too ashamed to ask.
For example...If I want to call a time out in a late game situation but ensure that we inbound the ball under our hoop, what general area of the floor need we be with the ball when the time out is called? Mind you, we want to inbound it under our hoop rather than on the sideline. Thanks! |

Yet again, crew has given an answer that doesn't really help the questioner.
In determining where the ball is inbounded, anything in the key or FT semi-circle is inbounded on the baseline. For the rest of the court, two "lines" are drawn from the far corner of the FT lane to the corner of the court. If you are in either of those triangles, the ball will be on the baseline.

Coachgrd,
While Mark Dexter is right on about the rule, remember that you might think you were inside the two lines drawn from the foul line to the corner and the ref might not think so if it's close. To be especially sure, I'd have your player very near the baseline and as close to the key as possible when calling the time-out. Z |

It's important to make this distinction not just to be anal, but to reinforce the concept to your players that just because you or one of them yells "TIMEOUT", they shouldn't assume a timeout exists at that point and therefore stop playing.

With the whole "screaming for timeout not yet granted" and then A commits a violation (i.e., double dribble, travel) thinking there is a timeout, do any of you call this any differently based on the level of play?

BASE LINE
Is "crew" a college official. Wonder why they have a "base line" in college. The NFHS have "end lines & side lnes" but not base line. However, the NFHS baseball teams have a base line. Maybe crew should suggest that colleges convert to end lines and side lines.

Let's try to remain civil around here. Crew was trying to answer a question and used a very commonly used term. And he gets blasted for it! If you don't like his philosophies, that is fine and good, but there is no need to try to tear down every word someone says who does not have the same ideas as you do. BTW, many people use the term "base line" for the end line in the front court. They use the term "end line" to be the line at the end of the back court. By doing this, it can help to identify which line is being talked about. If you don't like this method of communication, then don't use it. If it makes sense and helps you to referee the game better and helps you know what your partners are talking about, then you are better off for it. |
