Are you saying that this is NOT a judgment call? Or are you saying that this is a technical foul in YOUR judgment?
Please clarify. |

My contention, which is backed up by my state interpreter(s), it that after dunking, contact with the backboard as in the original post (two hands) is undoubtetly intentional. A player isn't going to reach for the board if someone is under them, they are hanging onto the ring. |

Note that I'm not saying that the judgment is wrong. I'm saying that it is a judgment though. What state, if you don't mind me asking? Last edited by Jurassic Referee; Mon Mar 15, 2010 at 07:44pm. |

In my judgement, as well as all of our interpreters from top to bottom, this act is always going to be intentional. We had this discussion in an interp's meeting a few years back. The guy who brought the issue forward could not give an example where this would be unintentional. We wasted 20 minutes on the subject....... The state I am from has no relevance in the matter. |

Just because you say that in your judgment the act will always be intentional, that doesn't mean that everybody in the world has to agree with your judgment. And if your state interpreter feels that is wrong, then in my opinion your state interpreter does not understand the rule. Is that clear enough for you? And note again that I'm not questioning your judgment. I'm questioning your inference that it isn't a judgment call. Last edited by Jurassic Referee; Mon Mar 15, 2010 at 09:12pm. |

OK, no, I didn't go there. I thought maybe you knew about my time spent with the CHC...
