Can I get some help on Time Out administration?

NFHS says on edge/on of the circle.

Thanks to you and Mick. That's what I remember. It's a change back to what we used to do years ago away from the silly both go to the tops of the key or the blocks we did for a few years.

You are correct, sir, thanks for the correction. Not sure where that came from.

2001-2003 Manual shows the 1/2-way mechanic.

And that official may or may not be the official who administers the timeout. That responsibility is based on who's line the throwin will be on based on the official's positions before the timeout.

From post #6 earlier in this thread:

Quit being silly. There is no reason when I read and respond to post #19 to go back and review the entire thread to someone said something similar in post #6. You may have enough free time to check, but I don't.

Silly age-related memory question...

Which edge? Nearest the table? Opposite table?

Table-side 30 [Shorter]
Opposite side 60 and intermission. [Longer]

It's not silly to ask someone to actually read the thread before posting.

Do you officiate the same way? Do you pick up a play at the tail end without observing any of the previous action and make a call on the first thing that you see? I guess that you don't have time to see the whole play.

I also don't leave the game and go to work for a few hours between plays.

IAABO claims that "farther sideline coverage by the trail above free throw line extended reduces ball watching and provides better coverage" (IAABO Crew of Two Basketball Officials Manual, page 46, "Option: Line Coverage Above Free Throw Line Extended)

How nice for them. Thank goodness I've never lived in an IAABO state. Just another group to take money from officials.

I'm all for reducing ball watching, but if the Lead simply takes a few steps back and positions himself near the corner of the court. He can handle the sideline while still giving 80% of his attention to post play.

I still say that there is no way that the Trail is going to be accurate on that far sideline.

You could read read the thread once and remember what has been said. Of course, that is difficult for old people.
