Rebounding Contact (video)

[JRutledge]

Looks like a foul to me. The guy in white pulls down the guy in blue.

Peace

Yeah, that was quit a bit late...I'm guessing he didn't even call a foul but stopped play for an injury????

That needs to be a foul long before that whistle. That is enough contact that possession consequence is no longer a factor.

It looks like no foul was called. It does look like they only stopped play for the injury situation.

Peace

Foul. And, of course, we wouldn't report it to the table as, "Over the back".

With apologies to John Lennon: Imagine if blue hadn't kept possession after the contact, and fall to the floor, by the blue player? Imagine if the ball had gone out of bounds off the falling blue player? Imagine, if somehow, white had come up with the offensive rebound, and worse, an easy put back "bunny? Imagine the officials standing there with the whistles still in their mouths. Imagine the blue coach getting a technical foul, or worse, getting tossed.

I should have mentioned in the OP...no foul was called. The whistle was due to the injury.

This fell into the "elephant" category for me. I can kind of see why the L didn't call it since he was too close. The only reason I can think of why the T didn't call it was he must've figured "Well, Blue is going to get the ball anyway..."

Felony or elephant, it would have helped if the L had backed out from closedown once the shot went up. Also would have helped if the C was anywhere near where he was supposed to be.

You're being way too generous to the Lead, he simply missed a foul in his primary.

Yeah, I know. Of course, the T could have helped. A lot.

Check out the movement of the crew as the shot goes up. The C is backing out and the T is moving down. They both anticipated a rotation that never came. At the 6:40 mark the C was in the A position then he started closing down. He made it to B then stopped but the other guys kept moving. The movement really put the T in a great spot but he just missed it.
