Same. It's not our responsibility to tell the teams which direction they're going coming out of a time out. That's what coaches are for.

This season marked the first time - H.S. or NCAAW - I've had a team screw this up and score against itself in one of my games. Home team inbounds the ball. A2, realizing there's no one between him and the basket he and his teammates had been defending, drives in a scores. My partner and I stopped things momentarily just to let the table know the goal counted and the scorers needed to put a notation in their books. Otherwise, life continued as normal.

Bush league play. But like the throw in play where A2 walks down loudly proclaiming "Coach wants me to throw it in" after A1 has the ball for the throw in, there's nothing to do about it.

I don't think it's a Bush League play.

Know where you're suppose to be and don't follow others. If you're listening/watching, thinking, and communicating with your teammates, you should figure it out.

I think you have to be playing in a bush league for this to work more than once in a blue moon.

The fact that it's JV level no doubt contributes to its frequent success over the past six or seven years.

A jv coach should know better and be more on the ball than to let this happen to his team.

Maybe we should send an anonymous letter to the league commissioner, the principal, and the head coach that the jv coach who fell for this tactic should have his fingernails pulled out as punishment for not instructing his team which basket they should be defending

Thanks Devon!

Agreed. If this is a bush league play, then so is a shot fake or a backcut.

How dare they try to fool the opposition by playing within the rules.

It is up to the coach to catch on. A kid shooting at the wrong basket happens occasionally. However, as officials, we cannot shout out, "Don't shoot! You are at the wrong basket!" This falls into the same category.
As an aside, at a JV game prior to mine a few weeks ago, a team scored TWICE at the wrong end. My partner and I agreed that it sure would have been great if it were two different players. Not sure it was. We left it alone.

Good, because the "barking dog" play is illegal.

I remember that this "play" was declared illegal, and I'm not disagreeing with you because I always listen to bob, but do you have a citation to back it up for the rookies?

Just went through the archive and can't find it.

Maybe it was part of the Pre-Season Guide one year?

Really? We're not supposed to say the color and point when each team comes out of time-out or intermission?
