Gave my first ever T last night...

[Man In Blue]

I had a streak of 3 nights in a row calling T's. I was late in the 4th Qtr of the soph game and no T's. I make the mistake of saying to my self during a time out the streak is over.

Next play out of the time out a player reaches and slaps the are of the defender. I whistle the foul and the next thing I know the player slams the ball on the floor. The ball easily goes ten feet in the air.

The streak continues...

Oh, the best part is that the slap is the 7th team foul and the T is 8th. So we shoot the bonus, the T and give the ball to the other team. Pretty big penalty. Hope she learned something.

Wasn't the slap a team control foul?

Coming "out of a time out", it might have been during the throw-in.

Perhaps, but since the player then slammed the ball down; it was either after the throwin or it was the thrower (always possible.)

HS has been pretty tame lately.

Men's league last night: blue has the ball with seconds left in Q2. "8... 7... 6... 5..." And then there's a steal by white. "4... 3-2-1." White jacks up what would be described as a 4-point shot.

Tweet. Unsporting.

Simulating the end of a period.

I'm confused. I thought it was the end of the period.

When white stole the ball, blue continued to count down, but instead of "3... 2... 1..." with the ellipses representing 1 second of elapsed time, they went "3-2-1", all within about a half-second.

That caused white to shoot the ball prematurely, when in reality, they still had ~ 2 seconds left.

There is no visible clock in men's leagues games here; the league doesn't get to use the HS clocks. They play running time 25min halves and stop clock in the last 2 minutes if the gap is < 16 points.

If that warrants a "T", then I think you are looking for trouble.

Do you think maybe you left out a little bit of info in your first post?

I know you didn't mean "are". Did you mean "arm" or "arse"?
