Had my first instance of one hypothetical play that has been beaten to death here: A1 jumps and either throws a pass or maybe it was a shot (not a ton of talent and it was real hard to tell) from behind 3 point line, off the head of defender B1, into the hoop.
Had my first ever instance of checking the book and finding a coach had indeed left off a player. Counted players when we came out at 15. Coaches and captains pregame at 12. "Coaches is everyone legally equipped blah blah blah... Okay then please double check the book have a great game." Captains meeting, turn around and at 10:45 find V has 14 on the floor and 13 in the book. We were seconds away I suppose from starting with free throws. Honestly in 14 years I haven't had it happen once.
Had a couple other firsts in the last few weeks, but they were so bone-headed they probably deserve a thread of their own! :D
