Spot throw-in violation in playoff game.

[cmhjordan23]

In soccer, at least in Wisconsin me personally if a player happens to creep further up or runs more than 5 yards I will blow my whistle to back him up or re-throw.

My interp of the video was that the inbound play was following a made basket. If not, why was the announcer making a point about the timeout taking away the right to run the endline which, of course, is wrong. If that was the case, then the official blew the call and screwed over that team!

They had a FC throw-in. Spot.

You are correct. You can see they are inbounding near their own bench so they must be in their frontcourt. They must have been granted the timeout not immediately after the basket, but after they inbounded and moved the ball into their frontcourt. Of course, not only did the announcer quote a rule incorrectly, but the rule he was quoting was irrelevant anyway. So what's new?

Accurate call that had to be made, both in spite of and regardless the circumstances. No brainer.
Two weeks ago in an intense girls' v matchup a girl for the visitors' team, to avoid a defender, chose to run out of bounds to try to break free for the AP throwin to begin the third quarter. I banged it. They lost the throwin and also the arrow. Ended up losing by one. A good friend and veteran official who also happened to have been a twenty-plus year retired head coach for that same team asked me about it this week, commenting, "Well, I guess if that was your interpretation..." Interpretation?????? It happened, and, by rule, the proper call was made accordingly.
The official in the situation above noted a vioilation that happened, and made the proper call accordingly. Good job, in spite of and regardless the unfortunate outcome for the violating team.
It wasn't his fault it happened to have such a major impact at the end of the game. I bet he'd have called it the same had it occurred in the first quarter of the game.

Mark, re-watch he video with the sound down. You'll figure it out a lot better without the announcer.
