There's no way you can know if the plane is broken by standing behind the line on your side. It goes against everything that's ever been taught with regard to getting the proper angle. When you administer a throw-in, I guess you stand behind the thrower to know whetehr he's broken the boundary plane or not.


Oh well, that just means you're both wrong. If you can't get wide enough to see the players you're responsible for during the FT and make a foul call after restrictions, you might won't to get your feet out of the concrete and move.

Personally, I don't limit myself to one side of the lane or the other on rebounding action. I get an angle where I can see the entire play. I'll yield to my partner if he makes the call but I'm not going to ignore the foul.

Sorry I forgot to add blue font, of course I'm not advocating needing to stand right on the line. My OP originally was trying to find the rational for looking opposite, when in NCAAM they stay the same side. Why the difference? You're right I must not be very good.
