a little help.....
ok, I have a situation I just thought of, but my books are at home :( .
A1 shooting 2nd of 2 ft's. A2 commits a lane violation during shooting motion (immediate violation, dead ball, no ft). That I know... But say B1 goaltends the released ft, even though the released ft never really counts due to A2 violating. My question is, is this still a technical foul and goaltending enforcement on B1 for goaltending a ft? Even though the ft was killed by A2 violating? If it IS a T, it would be 2 ft and division line throw in opposite the table for team A. If it is NOT a T, would it just be b's sopt throw in on end line? |
Good one!
I'd like to think a GT cannot occur because of the whistle to kill the FT... no live ball. Don't have my books either, someone should be along to clarify sooner than later. |
No GT...ball is dead....B's ball due to the FT violation.

Correct...
The Case Book play in 9.12 refers to A2 entering the lane and committing basket interference. The interference is ignored because the free throw attempted ended with the violation. Even with B committing the interference, the free throw ended on the violation. |

Second, since you recognize that the FT was canceled, you should realize that it's impossible to goaltend a shot that never occurred. No violation. B's ball for an end-line throw-in. |

That's why I love this place, you can learn from others before messing them up on the court. Helluva tool for officials! |
What is the situation that would cause a person to goaltend a free throw if they didn't know it was a T?
|
The number one reason would be stupidity
A couple years ago a coach told his player to goaltend a free throw late in a close game during the NCAA Men's tournament. He knew it would get them the ball back no matter what, which was what he wanted to accomplish. However; he didn't realize the technical foul rule, thankfully the referees did and handled the situation correctly. Of course, the referees were blamed for the loss until the coach found the rule and exonnerated the crew, lol.. |

As I remember it, I don't think the coach blamed the refs...sure, he reacted at the moment of the call but the refs immediately explained it and it was over. |
