Have any of you ever called...

[bainsey]

...a five-second throw-in violation, when you weren't administering?

[fiasco]

If I'm not mistaken, one of our esteemed forum members is the officials who gets completely hung out to dry in this video ...

Was the guy in the frontcourt keeping his own count or something?

Could see the guy administering the OOB counting. Did his partner think his count was too slow?

[Raymond]

Where's the video from the locker room afterwards....LOL

The non-administering official seemed to be saying the the administering official should have started his count right away after the made basket.

Definitely not a good look for the crew. The new trail was on top of the play and Black did not delay in getting the ball at their disposal.

Rich, are you on a first name basis with these officials?

[JRutledge]

I am sure that locker room was very interesting after the game.

That Guy is everywhere.

If I was the administering official there is no way in hell that I would allow that bozo's call to stand. I would have told him to get his fat tuchus over to the bench's and explain that he screwed the pooch (as we baseball umpires say) and I don't care if he was the R. I would have never allowed any team but the blue team have the ball for throw-in. As one can see, to say I would have been , would have been an understatement.

"7-8% advantage to the home team"......remember that!

Hung out to dry!

My GUESS is that since he had time restored on the clock he used the game clock to determine 5 seconds had elapsed. Not sure when he thought the 5 seconds should have started but it appears he started when the ball hit the floor after the made basekt.

That is what I think he did.....but none of that makes it right.

That's what I think he seems to be indicating with his hand gestures. But, wow, that's horrible.

[rockyroad]

Looks like the younger guy did his best to try to straighten the bozo out, but the bozo just got more forceful with his hand gestures. Not much the younger guy could do right then and there on the court. Hopefully that video has been turned in to their assignor...

Except that the commentator said 7 seconds were left and he had it reset to 3 seconds. Someone would have made my block list immediately after the game.

Would have been a long and silent ride home.

After seeing this I don't feel quite as bad about last week when my partner called a foul from lead on a shooting foul on a 3 pointer at the top of the key.

Memories
Light the corners of my mind
Misty watercolor memories
Of the way we were
Scattered pictures
Of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were
