I'm sure even their observer had to watch the DVD a time or two to figure out what went wrong on this play.

Absolute violation at all levels. Yes, they missed it.
BUT.... That really isn't the kind of play the rule is trying to prevent. There was absolutely no benefit gain, the defense wasn't contesting it, etc. The kind of play that rule is addressing is when the defense chose not to guard the thrower when the throwin is under the thrower's basket. It prevents the thrower from dropping the ball inbounds and then stepping in for an undefended layup. It might also prevent a backcourt thrower from getting the ball inbounds when the defense is pressing. Need to be called....yes. But, a glaring miss....nah.

Lets face it, all in all, officials at every level make mistakes. And that is okay, just dont make them gamers
![]() When the clock hits triple zeros as long as our call/no call accuracy percentages are better than the teams FG percentage & their assist to turnover ratios... we are the best team on the court.

They do say call the obvious. If this play was called, I think it would have made the sports headlines.

Many outlets have a "dumb play of the week" or "you wouldn't believe it", etc. If the NBA didn't know about it until a fan mentioned it, it's easy to see that the media wouldn't know about it either. Now if it was called, the announcers would have been "what?????" and replay would have shown what happened. Then other sports outlets, like PTI, SportsCentre, or even other NBA broadcasts would have picked it up. And guess what they would have shown?..... Game film. ![]()

I gotta admit, I didn't know how to do a proper mechanic on it, so I did this mechanic like an over and back and then gave a quick, coach that player inbounded the ball. He had this look on his face, like "WTF". But let's face it, nobody else was even looking. |

The sports headline would only be the point out how weird the violation was. I doubt people would be up in arms if the call was made...that's a rule all basketball fans know. You just usually don't have it happen 60 or so feet down the court.

Maybe it's the places I visit, but video is so prevelant nowadays. On social media sites, the old adage "pics or it didn't happen" can be replaced with "video or it didn't happen". Let's face it now though. APG, you've fashioned yourself as our go-to-guy for video - for video that we care to see - before ESPN or PTI, etc will show it. ![]()

That's where I saw the play...didn't even notice the first to touch issue at first. I was definitely watching to see if the clock my have started early or not.

Where are all throw-in after a throw-in violation?
