Misunderstand Rules

[rlarry]

I had a V official, who was working the table at an AAU tourney, tell the opposing coach and then myself that I should have been calling 3 seconds on his player. He argued that when the player shot the 3 second count "freezes" and when he gets the ball it picks up where it left off, and then said to me "You should check that out, brother". I was shocked and didn't respond well. I laughed at him and told him I didn't need to check it out and maybe he should check out the 3 second rule, and then remember there is no team control during a shot. I can't believe he made it to Varsity with such a distorted view of a basic rule.
