If no one is bothering the kid with the ball we should be in the habit of looking at the next possible problem area (within reason, of course).

It appears these are all in the same game. And we have 3 players with a lot of contact and the first play even involved a player with the ball falling and nothing was called. These kids are bigger and faster than they were even 20 years ago and there is more motion offenses as well. These plays all would have been helped by a third. And these are the plays that could be highlighted if I wanted to illustrate why you need 3 instead of two.

#1 Illegal...time distance not met.

#2 Illegal.

#3 Legal. Was there in plenty of time and stopped letting the defender come into him

Bingo, especially in slow motion. Nevertheless, a tough call either way.
