Absoutely JR! For the record, this was a mens wreck game & my guy was working on the court next to me. I didn't ask his opinion on this play, he kinda brought it to me.

Wreck ball? Your "D1" mentor is telling you this during wreck ball? Pffft. INT foul and I don't even think twice about it.

We use this level of play to prepare for the season, calling the game as if it were a real game. He was simply asking if I plan to make this same call during the season & why I shouldn't.

Yes!! I knew I had that one right.

NBA rule is not equivalent -- only one free throw

Section X--Away-From-The-Play Foul
a. During the last two minutes of the fourth period or overtime period(s) with the offensive team in possession of the ball, all personal fouls which are assessed against the defensive team prior to the ball being released on a throw-in and/or away-from-the-play, shall be administered as follows:
(1) A personal foul and team foul shall be assessed and one free throw attempt shall be awarded. The free throw may be attempted by any play-er in the game at the time the personal foul was committed.
(2) If the foul occurs when the ball is inbounds, the offended team shall be awarded the ball at the nearest point where play was interrupted but no nearer to the baseline than the free throw line extended.
(3) If the foul occurs prior to the release on a throw-in, the offended team shall be awarded the ball at the original throw-in spot, with all privileges, if any, remaining.

He probably over-looked you.

Follow the same procedure that you use at a camp when someone gives you instructions that you know are wrong. Listen intently, nod your head in agreement and then ignore the advice when he's out of sight. That saves your friendship and also lets you do what you know is right.
