Crazy fun game tonight
Had a challenging but enjoyable OT game today. Home team #1 in conference vs. #3 team. Pre-game was a senior night, which they recognized the all-time points leader.
Pre-gamed thoroughly with my fellow officials and said to be read at the tip. I throw up the ball and try to stay out of the way. See that the home player jumper catches the ball in the circle. I blow my whistle and indicate violation. We confirm who gets possession due to violation. Early in game 2 times the shot clock operator failed to start the clock (1 situation stopped a fast break for home team...waited 3 sec then blew dead). Home Coach tells me as the R to get the shot clock operator right..which I already did a thorough pregame with the individual, but went over again. A 3rd time the operator messed up...the ball hit the rim, the person didn't reset and a horn goes off, then less than 1 second later home fouls a visitor player. Coach upset from home teams, saying her players stopped playing when horn went off (in hindsight...could the 3 officials realized quick enough to blow the play dead for the reset...probably not). So long story...short...the all time leading scorer puts shoulder down into a defender at the end of the game (tied ball game), I call a charge to foul the player out with 3-4 seconds, 5th foul on the player. Goes into overtime and the visitors win by 6. Fun game, but lots of craziness...called 3 PC's and having a table that's not doing a great job makes for a challenging game! |

OT does = Fun!
I worked my 1st OT game of the season this past Friday. It was my 3rd game involving the home team.
#1) They lose by 50. #2) They lose by 40. #3) They win by 3 in OT. The fans (the few that were there) storm the court. I think that it was their 2nd win (& 1st home win) of the season. Mark who?

I agree and I'm also wondering why the R is calling a jump ball violation on one of the jumpers in a 3-man crew. What is the U1 doing?
