Toss to start the game

[deecee]

his count was pretty on point I would have been about a half second sooner than him but other than that his count was close to perfect. Also that toss was rough, that's not a good way to toss IMO.

What about the travel at about 1:10?

Say what you want -- it was between 11 and 12 seconds from the time white got possession in the backcourt until the violation was called. I used the YouTube clock, though, no stopwatch.

His toss was perfect if the players were 10 feet tall.

I'm more impressed that, with him tossing it that high, that the ball went straight up and straight down.

Flo was in the house!

Since 90% of the tosses are not high enough, I'd rather see this type.

I like how the people taping couldn't stop laughing after the toss.

With the NCAA telling its officials to use a stop-clock mechanic on OOB calls, there's no reason a JV HS official doesn't do that automatically.

I have no idea who this association gives the OOB call to above the FT line in the frontcourt. I'm still a fan of the L taking the line all the way down and working out there when the ball is near the line. The L didn't move -- I have no idea if he's expected to there.

6:49, L signals a 3 attempt, doesn't signal the make.

Not a whole lot to look at in this 8:30 of basketball, really.
