A couple seasons ago, some of the more junior members were having an issue with properly administering a baseline throw-in. Namely, they would stand in between the inbounder and the basket. One of the JV instructors came up with this lovely little saying to remind those officials that they should not be between the inbounder and the basket.

IAABO Option ???

According to IAABO mechanics, this is allowed as an option in a two person game if it will give the lead a better look at the anticipated action. Personally, I've never used it, never have in almost thirty years. I've always found the "box in" principle (official, ball, partner) to work just fine in a two person game.

Depends where the ball is being inbounded. Are you telling me you box in the play if it goes out of bound close to the 3 point line?

Also depends on which direction we're going...

I wouldn't, but it is optional under IAABO mechanics.

Right, if the ball is going the opposite direction I'll be on the outside of the play (since thats where I'm going anyway)

If the ball is staying at the nearest basket, I'm taking that inside position.

For those of you who don't know what a "throwerin" is, here's a sentence that should explain it.

"Crust-vaikutteita karsittiin hieman pois, ja Bolt Throwerin tyyli alkoi tästä lähtien muuttua raskaampaan, nopeampaan, aggressiivisempaan ja ennen kaikkea vielä perinteisempään grindcoreen."

So none of these guys know that baselines are in baseball and endlines are in basketball?
