Arrow Continuation?

I had an evaluator say that the continuation rule is the exact same for NFHS, NCAA, and NBA. Is this true?

Yes. And IMO, there are too many people who call a foul "on the floor" when it should properly be called a shooting foul.

Agreed. I see it too many times where the dribbler picks up his dribble driving to the basket, gets fouled and the foul is called not in the act of shooting. If he picks up his dribble on the drive before getting fouled, let 'em finish.

A lot of these should be no-called, too, if the dribbler is getting past the defender and gets hit. Not all, but a lot.

But just picking up the dribble isn't necessarily enough, he must be starting his shooting motion (which often times starts simultaneously with the gathering of the dribble.)

Agreed, light contact I will let go, I'm talking about when you do call the foul.

I would say that 99% of the time when on a dribble drive they pick up the dribble while starting their shooting motion. The other 1% is when they pass it off.
