Continuous Motion/Gathering Ball

[Jeremy Hohn]

Always use "NO SHOT" instead of "on the floor". My ruling is if they begin the "gather" to attempt the shot, I am lining them up. I believe it was a point of emphasis in the NCAA this season.

I yell, "Occurred prior to the starting of the continuous motion that usually leads to a shot".

Yeah, right.

Had a coach this year actually ask, "he can shoot from the floor?" He was questioning free throws on a foul that occurred low on the arms as the shooter was bringing the ball up off the floor to shoot in the paint.

Sadly, I couldn't help myself. "yes, it's called a set shot." Not proud of it, but he just walked away mumbling and let it go.

I have a line for when I do something I know I shouldn't, but do it anyway.

Agree. If this little girl gets fouled in this position, I'm giving her two shots.

I think her feet are behind the line, you better giver her three shots if she misses the shot.

For shooting outside the paint? You're generous (or is it chivalrous?)
