Straightlined to me is a competitive match up which you are unable to have an angle on offense/defense. This wasn't the case. I don't see how Walton could make an across the court OOB, it would be a guess and he did the right thing, he trusted his partners.

After St. John's stole the ball it became Burr's line. But Burr was not in position to see the line b/c of how he set up on the initial throw-in. Higgins should have had secondary help on the line.

Why is it Burr's line? Not familar with NCAA PCA, isn't it new trail's (Higgin's)?

Go back and look at the pictures and ask Rut for help in telling those two apart. Burr, apparently, IS the new trail, although he is not visible in the video.

That's about as close as it gets...I've only seen one other time in an NBA game where replay was that close!

When the play started (b/c throw-in by Rutgers) Burr was the new lead 94' away in the frontcourt under the basket. In the video shown from St. John's frontcourt you will see him running to get over to the sideline from the paint after the pass is stolen. Higgins is in front of St. John's bench along the sideline.

If this has already been discussed I missed it so...

The player with the ball who appeared to travel and step OOB was in the process of chucking the ball while stepping OOB.

Let's say the whistle blew on the step OOB while he was in the process of chucking the ball into the air. Anything for the chuck? DOG?

Let's say you stuck him for DoG. How would you justify it in the rules?

In reading NFHS 3-47 now I'm not sure I can give him a DOG warning.

Are you saying you would stick him for unsporting act? Or is it nothing? Wouldn't it be like a kid who dunks right after a travel call ie judgment call?

Nah, I wouldn't do either. There is a possibility of a T if his actions actually delay the game, but if they'd called this travel, they would have been looking at the monitor to determine the proper time left on the clock.

No way I'd go unsporting, either, unless he's looking at me ask for the ball and then throws it away.

On this play, it's nothing.

Already addressed by John Adams in ESPN article. Even it there had been a whistle the player thought game was over so no T for action.
