Coach didn't like violation call
Tie game with about 10 seconds left. Visiting team inbounding ball endline backcourt. Five second violation. Home team inbounding ball under own basket. Five second violation. The coach didn't like the call because thrower released ball before I blew my whistle. My partner told me this coach was a former official. I explained to the coach that the ball becomes dead on the violation. Not on the whistle. Would anybody handle this differently? Visiting team drove the court to win the game. No OT.

At the time, there's not really anything you could've done differently.
However, next time you have a similar situation, make sure you don't blow the whistle after the ball leaves the thrower's hand. If in doubt, play on with no violation. |

My personal method is to make sure the ball isn't "coming out of the hands" as I hit 5. This prevents an errant quick whistle. In reality, I probably give 5 seconds plus a heartbeat. I think it's better than constantly having violations.

Being a crucial point in the tied game & knowing you are giving the ball back to the visiting team, maybe put some strong, confident verbal behind the whistle... TWEET "before the release 5 seconds, red ball." JMO Hell, I wasnt there maybe you did that!

It's almost impossible to count too fast without dislocating your shoulder. Most are too slow, never seen anyone too fast.

Heard the opposite of this at clinic this year. I can't remember if it was Tom Lopes or his Asst. Exec. Dir. They had half the room turn and watch, and the other half (mine) close their eyes and do a five second count. From the other half of the room's reaction and the speakers comments, the counting half were genaerally a bit too fast. I was just about done when this reaction happened, so I think I'm either ok and/or a tad bit slower than actual 5/10 seconds.

I would tend to agree, HOWEVER, I have seen (as a coach and observer) MANY officials hand the ball to the inbounder and hit "1" at the same time. It is important to hand/bounce the ball to the inbounder, THEN begin your count. |

1) raise arm opposite thrower. 2) hand ball to thrower, using other arm. 3) take a step back/sideways from the thrower. 4) begin count with arm nearest thrower. Following this mechanic makes it basically impossible to do what you're stated above. |
