Post Game "T"

[Oz Referee]

G'day all - long time no talk

Anywho, if only free throws that can affected the outcome of the game are attempted, what about this scenario?

Fianl Score: Team A-100 Team B-97

As the game ends Coach A curses referees and make an offensive gesture. Referee calls a technical foul (2 shots) and records the foul in the book - no free throws since it couldn't affect the outcome of the game. A short time later (while still on the side of the court) A5 throws a punch at B6 (unprovoked). Flagrent/unsportsmanlike/disqualifying foul (depneding where you ref) on A5 - 2 more free throws.

Do you go back and shoot all 4 free throws? At what stage do you determine that the game is over and therefore don't call any fouls?

Cheers

In that situation, the free throws are only attempted if they can affect the outcome of the game. For instance, if team A wins by 3, but the head coach of team A receives a technical foul after the game, the official shall record the technical in the book. However, the free throws are not attempted, because even if team B makes both, they are still behind by one point. It is important to record the technical, though, because if another team A member receives a technical, the added free throws now CAN affect the outcome of the game, and are accordingly attempted.
