And that will be a disaster trying to get HS school officials to call this consistently.

Its' hard enough in the NBA with full time employees who can watch every game back in slow mo replay to see if they missed it etc., And they have a very long season of 82 plus games to practice making the calls.

Have to admit, though the NBA officials are pretty consistent with this call now.

But it will be very hard on college officials, (especially with no markings on the floor) and not even possible at the HS level IMO.

Thanks
