I disagree he says in his post he wants to shake off the rust and bad habits. Not working your primary is a bad habit. If he is in proper position as C he is on the other side of the floor foul line extended. His job is to be watching the other players for fouls away from the ball. A scrimmage is the only place we have to work these things out. Let it go and talk to your partners after.

If you let it go, you screw up as a crew! Maybe you shouldn't of been watching it, but if you get it right, it will create less problems. I'm sure you can be watching your players and still notice that no one touched the ball before Player A came from OOB's and grabbed it for the violation. Especially if they are free throw line extended, while helping with press coverage. You give your partner the first opportunity to get it, if they don't, then get it right, which you did, good call.

Agree with jritchie on this one!

If the "player in bounds to no one", that probably means it's a vacated area of the court. If I'm the C, I'm going to grab that call after the L has the opportunity and neglects to make it.

Disagree, This was so obvious it had to be called. The way the players were situated allowed me the luxury of that view. I don't want to get off topic as I knew someone would post that it's not my call which is another thread, another day.
