Well regardless, that's where it came from. Somebody started this post not me!! It was like that for years and since they only changed the rules every 4 years and JAy R says it was different in 2000 well maybe that's when it happened.
Sorry I took the time to explain Juraccic!!!:mad: |

How many is too many? Does this mean you call a certain percentage or if there are only a few you do call them all or......what? Quote:

We're just making up excuses for some officials that are not doing a particularly good job at calling a certain part of the game. <b>Obvious</b> travels <b>are</b> being missed. And some of 'em are <b>obvious</b> to Stevie Wonder. Of course, if there's was any doubt at all, you don't make the call. It's always been that way. But now, it seems that there's a lot of "no doubters" being missed. If you call it by the rules, and it ain't as difficult as what you're saying imo, the players will adjust in one helluva hurry. There's just way too much analysis anymore and not enough of "just call the damn game". Jmo. |

Please show me the post where I wrote that NBA officials are "missing" obvious travels.
And please tell me where I can find the NBA Philosophy book. Is it available inline? I have an NBA Rules Book. I know what it says. If you're the NBA and write your own rules, then why not re-write the damn rule if you're not going to call it? Face it! The NBA allows traveling. When you can watch an entire game and not see but one or two...NO...when you don't see a single traveling call, then they are allowing it. And college basketball is heading down the same path. Right Scrapper? Still waiting for BNR to tell me why it matters that JAR doesn't pay anyone's salary. |

If the matchup is in your primary referee the defense, look for body contact, etc. If you're outside you watch for the pivot foot. But Scrappy already told us he will not come in with a travel call if it's not in his primary. So he's saying the primary has to do all the work which we agree means the travels get overlooked. QED. |

As Hank Nichols posted in his NCAA bulletin of Feb.12 of this year, one of his concerns was traveling. His comment was <i>"Adjudication of the traveling rules has been inconsistent, especially at the end of a dribble. This is true for players driving to the basket as well as post players making a move to the basket. Officials need to concentrate better on where the offensive player's pivot foot is when he picks up a dribble. The guidelines are clear and officials need to make a much more consistent effort in calling violations for illegal pivot foot movements."</i> NOTE: Translated so that Dan_ref can understand-- <i>"I don't want to see any more of that damn step step dunk sh!t!"</i> :D When it comes down from the Mount, there has to be a concern. |

And being a Presidential election year, I made sure to say that I "might" not make it from the C. If it's an obvious travel from the 3-point line (like Jurassic mentioned in another thread), then I would think somebody would have to make it, even if it makes the primary official look bad. |

In my exchange with you I NEVER qualified the play as a 1 - 0 breakaway dunk. All I asked was do you routinely pass on step step dunk. You said no but you won't reach out of your primary to take it. I can understand if you want to go back & reframe the discussion. |
