Up until last Saturday I would simply say "lane" but someone at a level I aspire to work told me "not to trouble trouble."
We were watching the womens game prior to our game from the top of the arena & you could hear the lead say "lane" way up there. Like clockwork, the fans then the coach start screaming for 3 seconds & a whistle as a shot goes up. His thinking is, we have more than enough junk going on out there to be adding our own junk into the game. If the ball is up high in the f/c & he's in the lane for a bit... SO WHAT! Once the fans start screaming "3 seconds" that will be his encouragement to move. Let the coach/fans get players out of the lane for you, was the mindset here.

addendum: to your comment, I'm certainly not yelling anything that can be heard outside of a small area such as the paint. Last edited by fullor30; Thu Jan 27, 2011 at 10:57am. |

Right! You're L on As end & you say "watch the lane" so the player moves, no whistle. Your partner the T who doesnt use any verbal on the court (OOB just points no color, travel just a signal & point) becomes the new L on the next play & gives no warning, just hits em with a 3 seconds... how fair is that to Team B?

I'm not obligated to ensure both teams hear my watch the lane comment. They know the rules. I'm responsible for my area, and that's what I choose to do. By the way, sometimes I say nothing, depends if I'm in a philanthropic mood. Also if post player on defense hears first 'watch the lane' I'm assuming it registers with him when he's on offense. . |

I've seen several 3-second calls in D1 games this year. Life as we know it went on. |
