Intentional Foul by the Shooter

OK if you say so.

I did not give a scenario, I was responding to your situation. And what you originally described sounded like an every day PC foul most of us see.

Glad it worked out. Just keep in mind I am sure for many this is the very first time they have had one suggest to call an intentional foul for sure an action. And like said on the other board, I could not say, "Well this guy on this Officials Forum said....."

Peace

Part of the problem is my inability to describe my play. And, the point I was trying to make is that I have seen it and called an intentional. Does that mean YOU should call it for sure? No. Is it an option? I think so.

I understand that you guys have some good basketball in the Chicago area but around here our basketball is God awful. Football players who get a kick out of running over people, for example.

Here in my little corner of Connecticut, we get a lot of this in some of our small, rural, high schools. On Thanksgiving, playing linebacker, at 250 pounds, on the football team; two weeks later, the starting center of the basketball team.

Only once in all of my years of officiating basketball have I charged a player in control of the ball with an IPF. B1 gains control of the ball in Team A's front court with his back to his own team's basket. He looked to his left and saw A1 standing to his left in a LGP, he then then looked to his right and saw A2 standing to his right in a LGP. B1 then looked back to his left and then pivoted toward his left, swinging his elbows considerably faster than the rest of his body, and planted his left elbow in A1's chest knocking him flat on his tuchus.

Your play is my player only my play has one defender and the contact was made with the offensive player's shoulder. Thanks for helping describe this type of play.

My officiating experience is not just limited to one part of the state. Secondly we have bad basketball even in the Chicago area and football players too. And running someone over is not in itself an intentional foul. And the play discribed is still not what I was originally talking about. This still has little or nothing to do with a shooter.

I had a youth game with a college players son stealing the ball. His team was much better than the other team. He is on his way for a fast break and sees this younger kid trying to catch up to him. He looks for his shoulder at this hustling kid slows down and while flipping the ball toward the basket goes backwards into this poor kids chest and head. I call a PC foul. Now I am wondering if I should have consider upgrading to an IF based on that he went backwards looking to make un-needed contact with this defender....

Not everyone knows about it, and it may have disappeared from the most recent rulebook, but this might be a good time to enact the penalty for 10-3-6z: "Being a major butthead."
And when the college player father asks you after the game, "What do you think about my son's execution?", you say, "I'd be in favor of it."
