I would not go that far. For one thing all games do not need a 3 point shot to end the game if the game is close. And if the foot is on the line that needs to be clarified some way. Peace

Hmmmmmm, I was not referring only to his example. This conversation was about a concept, not a specific statement/reference/example. Thanks for playing. Peace

The whole point of signals and mechanics is to help us communicate better. This seems to me to be a good example of communicating early, so there's no surprises when the call is actually made. |

And it's not going to be "way late" for returning to the floor. These kids don't have Jordan-esque hang time. After they release their shot at the top of their jump, you've got maybe a half-second or so before they return to the floor. |

Did this in a game, my P told me that was the best 3 point pass he has ever seen. We both laughed and I learned from it.

That raising your arm as soon as the player jumps, you'll be signalling many 3 point passes.
"Act of shooting" and "try for goal" are different concepts, at least in the NCAA and FIBA rules (I guess the distinction is also in NFHS rules). The signal is for a "three point try for goal" which begins when the ball leaves the player's hands, not when the act of shooting starts. Ciao |

BTW, I have been doing it this way; I might go 10 or 20 games before that even happens. What does happen more often is contact almost immediately after a player goes airborne or some contact afterwards. I do not see what is so wrong if a player mid-jump decides to change their mind. Quote:

As I and others have pointed out, if you put up the signal at the beginning of the trying motion (that is, when he jumps from beyond the arc), you're telling everyone that you're awarding 3 free throws if he's fouled. The ball doesn't have to be released to award the 3 free throws. If the player passes the ball instead of shooting it, then you simply put down the signal. I don't see the problem with this, personally. It seems there is simply a difference of opinion on whether this is a reasonable thing to communicate. The fact that I might signal a "3-point pass" doesn't seem to be a good enough reason not to put up the signal when the trying motion begins. |

Jeesh!!!
Hey Scrapper, I guess all I meant was that I learned that I should slow down a bit. Be sure of what I am signaling before I signal it, that's all.
