And some morons will be pontificating about how "if we're going to prepare athletes to compete at the next level then they need to playing by the same rules because it's too hard to make the adjustment when they get there." As if And it'll happen. But you just watch. The rules about marking the lane lines will not change. Ever. Because the rules committee at least knows that soon enough somebody will want to change it all up again.

We were an experimental state this year for leaving the bottom block open. I didn't notice less or more contact but it sure appeared to give the non shooting team better rebounding position.

An observation I am going to make. How do you expect officials to serve the game better if you only allow them to use a system during the post season and not during the regular season as well? Peace

Why is the coach dumb just b/c her opinion of a play is different?

Video of the play

The quality is not perfect, and if you can look past the bias and fact errors, you can see this: Black has the ball with 13.9 seconds to go, up by one point. Time out is called and black has throw-in on end line. White steals the ball. Much scrambling. Whistle (for time out) & 3-point shot attempt at roughly the same time. There are about 3.5 seconds on the clock when the shot is attempted. Clock runs down to 0.3 seconds while shot is in the air. Three-person crew. Trail is right next to home bench and grants the time out. Scoreboard is on wall to the left of the basket, on C's side. So....if this is your game: Did the crew handle it properly? |

Most tournament assignors try to get at least one college official on each crew, so one person has solid 3-person experience. But that does not always happen. I know of games where the most-seasoned official had exactly one game working a 3-person system (the one he worked two days before with a college guy.) There are special clinics offered by most officials' boards in February on 3-person mechanics, but a single clinic and working actual games are hardly equal. The issue is money. Schools are not willing to pay an additional fee 20 times per year (10 boys and 10 girls) to have 3-person crews. This year, schools that were going to the tournament were encouraged to use 3-person crews in February as a "warm-up." I have not heard of any school that actually did. |
