Two things you can do to determine six feet. Get two friends. Put one at the top of the key and the other at the free throw line and see how far appart they are. That is six feet. The other is what you see some of the college officials do from time to time. The average official is six feet tall and has a wingspan of six feet. Spread your arms. If you feel you could touch both players, then you should be counting.
P.S. Coaches will argue anything in order to get a turnover or avoid one. I had one the other night argue that he was driving the basket. So, he didn't get past the defender in the five seconds much less break the six foot berrior. Good defense gets rewarded.
