Disconcertion or "Toss'em"

I never did find out what happened.

Oh yeah, he got blood on the score table.

I had one just a couple of weeks ago. Just before halftime, H is playing a zone defense and the forward charges out to the corner like he's going out on a three point shooter. Only he just keeps on truckin'. He made it almost to the locker room door before he lost it all over the floor.

V team made a basket on the "power play." I blew it dead after the basket so H could sub in another player. It was an odd situation, but I figured I should probably treat it like an injury. (V team was advancing on the basket at the time). Looking back I wonder if it would have been better to call a violation for leaving the floor, allowing the H team to sub immediately instead of playing short-handed.
