would you call this??

not me.

or the official on the court.....

Not I

Not me either.

Peace

Close, but not.

Only if I were ordered to so do.

Not A Popular Opinion, But I'm Being Honest ...
 

In my high school game, I'm probably calling palming (carrying). Shoot me if you guys want to, but that's probably what I'm doing.

A rare instance where Billy and I agree. :D

Nope

Let me ask the OP -- are you asking if we would call it or if we should call it?

(maybe we would call it, but we would be wrong / shouldn't call it.
maybe we wouldn't call it, but we would be wrong / should call it.)

Worth A Thousand Words ...
 

I am not calling the palming/carry violation here.....because it's not a palming/carry violation.

Why does it make any difference what level this is this takes place? I am calling the same at all levels because the rule is the same at all levels I am aware of.

Peace

My Judgment, My Opinion ...
 

That's because you work at least two levels, NFHS, and NCAA, and with your college experience, you probably have a much better understanding of NBA rules than some of us, most certainly me.

I know NFHS rules. Period. I don't know that the rule is the same at all levels, and even if the rule were exactly the same at all levels, how would I know that officials at all three levels interpret the rules exactly the same?

My high school game. This is a carry. I believe that in this situation it's a judgment call, it's a carry, that's my call, and popular, or not, I'm sticking to it. Another high school official may call this differently, and I wouldn't have a major problem with an interpretation other than my own. Like Camron Rust posted earlier, "It's close".
