Multiple Foul

My apologies if this has been discussed recently, but if a guy is hammered by two opponents on the way to the hoop, isn't it prevalent just to choose which guy's gonna get the foul and go with it.

I called a multiple foul that day, but if you don't want to hear, then fine.

No way I would make that call.

Saw one of these called at a camp this summer. Needless to say, the evaluator was very interested in hearing the official explain that call.

Really? I'd find most officials don't even know what a multiple foul is much less how to administer it correctly.

To the OP, I've never called it/seen it called...doubt I ever will too.

I didn't see the aftermath of the call but from what I heard it was not administered correctly at all.

I tell you, just once, I want to see a 3 pt shooter taken down by two guys and get to stand up there and shoot 4 free throws. I just wanna see it explained to the coach, want to hear his reaction, want to see the look on the bookkeepers's face, want to hear the fans! I think I even know the coach I want it to happen to. Just once...let it happen...somebody do it...be the first...please

Sounds like you have a calling. Let us know when it makes youtube.

If one has already decided that they're going to retire (due to age, health, etc), then this could be a thing that they do in that game.

That, and the false double when B1 fouls A1 "on the way up" and A1 proceeds to train B2 who has LGP.

Learn the definition for testing purposes only.

Then, forget it.
