Well, I haven't seen that before...

Can't call disconcertion. That only applies to "opponents" on the other team(9-1-3c), not spectators. See case book play 1.18(c). Warn 'em first and then you may give a team "T" out if it happens again, but you'd better be sure that it actually is a supporter of the team you're giving the "T" to.

I just figured there were a lot of folks digging into their casebooks for this one. I guess in concept it wouldn't be any different than the fans at the game I watched last Tuesday. One of them barked like a dog every time a player on the opposing team took a FT. I don't think it bothered the players, but it sure got on my nerves!

Why didn't you give him a DOG warning?

Forgot one...

Saw a 6th-grade boys' travel team employ the Hack-A-Shaq defense. Big guy for the visitors was scoring every time he caught the ball on the low block, but had missed a couple FTs earlier. With two minutes left in a tie game, the home team started fouling him every time he touched the ball. He went 0-for-6 but home kept missing. Then with 20 seconds left they fouled a different guy (I think one of the kids misunderstood the strategy) and that guy made both, and the visitors hung on for a 28-26 win!
