Actually, it wasn't described in the original post, but down the board a ways.
David -- In theory, I agree with you. I'm a legalist, and I don't see that playing fast and loose with the rules is within the spirit and intent. But in practice, there are all these situations where "judgement" and Ad/Disad come into play. I mean, what is gained or lost by calling or not calling 3-seconds against a team that is down by 30 with 15 seconds left? They are NOT getting away with anything. They also aren't learning their lessons. It's like trying to teach a pig to sing. Don't bother. It doesn't work and it annoys the pig. If you must call it, at least wait until the ball drops down to the "camper". That seems like judgement to me.
