2-10 question
 

Team A is fouled. No bonus light on and no indication from the table. On A's next possession, B1 fouls A1 on a shot, the basket went in. However, just before A1's release, and the whistle for the foul, the horn sounds. The table informs us that the previous foul should have been a one-and-one. What is the proper way to correct this?

Sounds like this was in the proper time frame for a correctable error to be enforced. Shoot the one and one with the lane clear, then the and one with the lane full and continue on from there. All action between the error and the made shot stands. The horn should be ignored.

Rev.Ref63:

You have not given us enough information to give a ruling. What happened between the time that Team A was erroneously (boy I hope I spelled that correctly) a throw-in for B1's common foul and the next time Team A gained control of the ball?

MTD, Sr.

Yep, I like Ed's answer. :)

But MTD makes a good point, you didn't tell us what happened during the interval from that foul to A's next possession and that foul. The error may not still be correctable.

MTD is right about the info. As long as there wasn't a made basket or a whistle or stoppage prior to the foul we are ok. If someone scored or time stopped we would have to correct before that ball became live again.

I took it for granted that A's next possession was on the throw in after the common foul. Might have been mistaken. Both are correct in asking for more information.

The throw-in occurred immediately following the foul. The foul was reported and the throw-in administered to A. The horn sounded just before A1 was fouled during a successful try.

B's coach argued that his players stopped play due to the horn. That is not the case, in my opinion.

Even if it is the case, it's his players' own stupid fault. Any coach worth his salt tells his players, "Play to the whistle!"

The only time the horn stops play is at the end of a period, and even then, there are exceptions.

That must have been some foul! Five guys getting fouled at the same time! Or did it also include the players on the bench!!! I would have liked to have seen that!

I hope I never get the guy who committed that one in one of my games. He must be incredibly quick....and BIG! :eek:

OK - meds time. :p
