D3 game last night. A1 drives to the basket and is fouled hard by B1. B1 attempts to play the ball, but after the initial contact, he follows through and pulls A1 to the floor. Intentional foul. I stayed in the area to make sure nothing else flares up, A1's teammates help him up from the floor, and I go to the table to report the foul.
Both free throws are successful and I indicate to my partner that the throw-in is on the endline. He walks to me and says "Was he the right shooter?"
Fact is, I never verbalized the shooter's number at the spot of the foul, and when he asked me, I had no idea who the shooter was. My third partner confirmed that it was the wrong shooter.
We corrected it properly, the correct shooter also made both free throws, so the error made no impact on the game. But I felt, and feel, like crap. First time I neglect to say who my shooter is, and I freakin' screw the pooch.
As playoffs approach, DO NOT LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU!!! Verbalize your shooter. What's the saying? If you can't be a good example, you'll just have to be a terrible warning.
Well, today, I'm the terrible warning. (And I'm pissed off about it!
