After a basket made by team A, team B inbounds the ball to bring up court. The ref begins his 10 second count. Team B is being pressed by team A. The count reaches 7 when team B calls a time out still deep in their backcourt. After the time out, does the count continue at 8, or does team B get a new 10 second count?

OK -

Here's one....Does the 10 second count end when the ball passes over the division line or when it touches the floor past midcourt or when it touches a player past midcourt?

Your ten-second count should stop when the ball touches a front-court player or the front court (floor)if it's passed over. If taken over the line by dribble, the ball and both feet of the dribbler must be in the front-court.

Tom,
I think Jack was asking Matthew a case question. http://www.ereferee.com/ubb/wink.gif
