ND vs Temple

[reffish]

Great calls at end of game. Free throw violation on the front end of one and one. Then the intentional foul on throw-in.

That official was on fire at the end of the game. He nailed them all!

As a player I HATE the ft violation call.

And what other violations do you not like: illegal dribble, traveling, basket interference, goaltending, to name a few?

He also "nailed it" on the FG attempt that broke the backboard plane!

I hate violations that are called tha have little if any advantage/disadvantage.

That said I'm in a bar amd the telecast focused on the players in marked spaces opposite of camera. I've since seen a replay and agree with the call on the player outside the arc entering early.

If you do your due diligence in learning the history of the rules of basketball and the Oswald Tower Philosophy, you will learn the advantage-disadvantage applies to fouls but not to violations.

I just now saw and read this post. From the date of your post, it is obvious that I think you started celebrating St. Paddy's day a little early and it must have clouded your judgement. ROFLMAO!!

I'll answer that.

I don't like FT violations on MADE free throws. With the exception of the shooter, I don't think either team should be penalized. No advantage is gained when the ball goes in the basket. Why penalize the offense on a made FT, just because someone steps in?

It's a bad rule.

I kinda understand where you are coming from here especially in situations in which the violation doesn't disconcert the shooter, but at the same time, if it's a violation if team B does it when team A misses a FT, but it's NOT a violation on team A when team A does it and team A makes a FT, then you are essentially penalizing team B.

The FIBA rule is exactly like this and I like it alot. If the ball goes in we ignore the vioaltions unless it's the FT shooter.

Saw on Twitter Barkley was going off? Anyone catch it?

I just kicked the 'round mound of rebound' off the pedestal on which I had him esconced for many years. He puts the typical rec league coach to shame with his ridiculous tirade on national CBS broadcast.
