Which game?

This is just like if a girl takes an extra step down 36 at the end of a JV game. Are you going to get that?

If you're looking for a rule reference, you MIGHT make a case with NFHS 10-2-4, but I wouldn't touch it.

Okay, a step further: FANS storm the court on a game-tying three, to force OT. T?

Doubtful if I could get them off in a reasonable amount of time.

Besides, I'd have to have a few minutes for the coin toss and....wait, wrong sport. Maybe not next year. :D

I don't this this is just like that.

Varsity girls last night, we were down by 6. Went on an 9-0 run in the middle of the 4th quarter to take the lead on a three. Opposing team calls a time out and our bench empties to high 5 the shooter that hit the three.

Stuff like that happens every Tuesday and Friday nights....

They issued a T, shot two to begin OT.

There has to be more to this doesn't there????

Either there's more to it OR it's just another 3 guys who don't belong working varsity basketball.

While I agree with this ... it is completely possible that the celebration continues to such a point that a T is called for. But I can only see calling this if it ventures into taunting the opponent (meaning a specific action someone is doing to taunt an opponent), someone says something T-worthy to an official ("See, look at that - even your lousy calls couldn't steal the game from us!") or if it goes on for so long that it interferes with getting the overtime going.

So in the OP, I've got nothing, and most good officials have nothing. And 30 second later we STILL got nothing. But if SOMETHING happens and you have to call a T between the 4th period and the beginning of OT, you would administer them to start the OT.

Unless there is a delay to the other team or something unsporting then there is no technical. So, if the clock is 0:00 and all they do is celebrate, then you have nothing.

This happened in a SWAC game last year or the year before — and the officials incorrectly assessed a technical foul.
