Thanks Snaqwells. I was just double checking!

Actually, the coach is entitled to a 20-second replacement period for the injured player.
The coach may have wanted that, but didn't know the terminology or how to ask for it.

Also, there may be some blood on the floor that needs cleaning up.

Perhaps, but his later rules gaffe removes the benefit of the doubt I would have given him.

BTW, can you point me to the rule for the 20 second replacement period?

Never mind, found it. 10-5-3

I had the same thought, but since that didn't occur until later, how could the official have known that the coach was a clueless git at the time of the injury?
Plus, it seems that the officials were unaware of the injury and that there were only nine players on the floor.
Game awareness moment.

Yeah, it is. It's part of the same rule that says you can have a 3 second call while the ball is still in the backcourt, that a player that reaches over another player without contact to get the ball has committed an over-the-back foul and that backcourt violations can occur without team control. It's called NF rule 11. All coaches have it in their rulebook. Unfortunately, no officials do.

Mark - Is the "reaching in" foul located in rule 11 also?

Yes, just after the part about inbounding the ball at mid-court following a timeout in the last two minutes of the game and players having to stand in the backcourt during the shooting of a technical foul.

I just discovered that the Catholic Bible has more books in it than the Protestant Bible. Many, not all, of us Catholics don't spend a lot of time reading our longer Bible, and don't usually bring it to Sunday mass; while many, not all, Protestants often carry their shorter Bible with them, especially to Sunday services. Coaches have the longer Catholic Rulebook, and use it like many, not all, Catholics, seldom; and officials have the shorter Protestant Rulebook, and use it like many, not all, Protestants, often.

Oh. I almost forgot. Happy Chanukkah. Just have the Rulebook, not the Casebook.

Oh, you mean a deuterocanonical rule book.

Is the 5-second closely guarded while in the backcourt in Rule 11 also? Oy vey gevalt
