IAABO's not-so-Fab Five
Here are the five questions most missed on the IAABO exam last November.
*A-1’s throw-in is deflected into the backcourt by A-2, who is in the frontcourt. A-1 is the first to touch the ball in the backcourt. The official rules a legal play. Is the official correct? *Prior to the game, team A is assessed a technical foul. While the ball is at the disposal of the free thrower B-1, the official has the scorer set the possession arrow toward team A’s basket. Is the official correct? *B-1 rebounds a missed try at A’s basket and passes the ball to a teammate near the division line. A-1 jumps from his/her frontcourt and secures control while both feet are off the floor. A-1 lands in the backcourt. The official rules a legal play. Is the official correct? *A-1 commits his/her fifth foul and is disqualified. Prior to A-1 being replaced, team A requests a timeout. The official denies the request. Is the official correct? *Jumper A-1 taps the ball which hits the floor and jumper A-1 catches it. The official rules this a legal play. Is the official correct?

I can see #2 being missed -- it doesn't happen often and can be confusing, and when it does happen *most of the time* it doesn't matter.
I had #5 happen to me earlier this year except a partner ruled it an illegal play. |

I'll put them up overnight. I figured, competent group that we are, that folks would just give their answers.

Correct. The jump ball and the jump ball restrictions end when the ball touches the floor (or a non jumper). At that point, any player can catch the ball.

I didn't answer the questions, because I have no doubt as to what the right answers are.

When I saw the list I was really surprised these were the top five. As was said earlier #2 doesn't happen too often so I can see some confusion and #5 can surprise us when it happens. The others tend to come up fairly often.

Enlighten me
I know the rule for #2, but why is that logical versus the ruling for the same with a common foul?

With any other kind of foul, play will be resumed with a throw-in after the FTs, so you therefore wait to make sure nothing else hinky happens before you reach that point. |

#2 and #4, are both in the "what difference does it make" category for me. If this was done incorrectly during the game would it matter at all? Not that I can tell.
#3 is an odd one, because isn't a player considered to be where he last touched the floor? So if you jump from OOB catch the ball in the air and "save" it, that is OOB. My answer to #3 was that this would be a back court violation since A1 had not established himself in the back court yet. #1 has been discussed in the forum a lot, I got that one right. #5 is one of those that I thought was OK, but wasn't 100% sure of the rule, so I'm glad it has been discussed. |

#3 -- defensive player exception to the BC rule #4 -- I think you need to get this one right so the other team knows who is in the game during the TO. |

#4 makes a difference b/c you need a sub before any subsequent action can take place. #3 is not a problem for anybody who studies the rules. #1 is something any 1st year official should know. #5 I called this a violation once a long time ago (and nobody said anything) but I went to check the rule on my own to make sure I got it right and found out I got it wrong.
