I don't think I'd ever call that on a defender. Obstructing the field of vision??? Now you can't put a hand in the face...Jeekies.

The one I hate the most is the disconcertion of the dribbler/passer in mostly 7th/8th grade girls. Girls though....seems to always be girls for some reason. The defender runs up on the girl with the ball and starts screaming as loud as possible "BALL,BALL,BALL,BALL....". After about four or five trips down the floor I'm hoping the girl she's defending never touches the ball again.

It is more like a SHO-O-O-O-OT an it is a long shout that way so the defender makes sure he doen't miss to be shouting exactly at the time of the shot.:D

However what I see in the local league and some national division 3 games is a man-on-man defence when the defender B1 yells SHOAAAAAAAT in the face of the shooter A1 spiting that nice and warm slobber at the shooter's face right at the time of shooting.

Would like to see your views guys.
If he spits on him on purpose, I'll call it. If he's just yelling "shot," I'm not calling it. I'm not officiating golf.

Careful, rule 10-3-7d has been there for a long time.

Annoying as hell, but not illegal.

This is a quick reply to the ball, ball, ball, post.

I wonder what this yelling in someone's ear has to do with fair play, sportsmanship.

I do not remember if I ever called it or will call it if it happens this year (I do think it is unsporting)

Why?

I call it communication. The more they yell, the less I have to.

How is it unsporting? The idea is it's yelling to their teammates to communicate what's happening with the ball.

Perhaps I am missing the picture of yelling in someone's ear.

Seems to me that such action would put the player in close enough proximity to make a basketball play.
If the player, that close, does not attempt a basketball play, then why is *yelling in an opponents ear* not unsporting ?
