				When to stop closely guarded count?
			 
			
			
			I have a rookie question that when I have asked at meetings, everyone seems to not be able to give a definitive answer.  You have a closely guarded situation at the top of the key.  You start the 5 count with your left hand.  They start their dribble and are still closely guarded for a 4 count, then make a move to the basket while still closely guarded.  Do you blow the whistle at 5 while they are moving toward the basket, or do you stop the count as they are making a "move" to the basket?
