More HS Hoops news from Yahoo!
Ok here's a shot that's really not seen very often
Guard hits amazing, back-to-basket, mid-court shot at buzzer - Prep Rally - High School - Yahoo! Sports Question is however did he travel before releasing the ball & was there a foul not called on the shot?

(2) Why would there be a foul called? If you're going to try to ask "officiating questions" at the end to make the posts seem on topic when it's just off-topic nonsense, at least make them better. |

Rich, I thought I might of seen some contact from the defense on the shot is why I was curious on whether or not a foul could of been called making this a 4 pt. play.

I actually have called a foul on a 2/3 court shot once. The defender wiped the shooter out right in front the defender's coach. HC said something to me about the call. I told him he needed asked his player what he was doing fouling in that situation.

Well yes a foul "could" make this a 4 pt play, but contact does not equal a foul. Judging by the movements of the shooter, there wasn't nearly enough contact to create an advantage (or disrupt his RSBQ if you prefer).

To me the video was inconclusive as to whether a foul happened or not.
Considering I still do not have the full understanding of disadvantage/advantage is why I was asking.

2. if there was contact, it sure looks like the shooter initiates it against a perfectly vertical defender. (shooter was responsible for contact) 3. If there was contact, it seems pretty conclusive that it didn't affect his shot at all. (no advantage anyway)

How this could possibly be a foul or even questioned to be a foul is beyond me. NOT EVEN CLOSE! |

I am, however, thinking of becoming an official (once I finally get my knee taken care of as I'm tired of wearing this brace).
I was asking due to seeing some of the comments on the article for clarification. Quote:

Forget the foul or travel. I love the fact that the T didn't bother to signal a three-point attempt until the ball got close.
Likely T mindset: "(Ball released) That's not going.... (Ball getting close) Well, maybe it... (Basket good) HOLY $#!%!!!" |
