My $0.02 - screen #1 is illegal. Red #34 didn't allow White #5 time/distance to stop or change direction.

Judgment call. I went back and watched again. I'm satisfied with the screen -- I see it as legal.

More later. I'm heading out with the family I haven't seen in 8 days.

--------------------------

ART. 5 . . . When screening a moving opponent, the screener must allow the opponent time and distance to avoid contact by stopping or changing direction. The speed of the player to be screened will determine where the screener may take his/ her stationary position. The position will vary and may be one to two normal steps or strides from the opponent.

watching on my phone, but so far I have a legal screen and a good player control foul

Rich: Can the Kindle NFHS Rulebook be "downloaded" to a personal computer? Is it easy to copy, and paste, from the Kindle Edition? The PDF rulebook, and casebook, on my hard drive is from 2011-12, and is getting kind of old to be used to post on the Forum. Thanks.

Love the call. I'm even ok with the mechanics of the call. That call probably needs to be sold.

[Camron Rust]

Agree....legal screen.

Close, but good PC call.

I'm wondering about the shot on the "left" end for red. Poor camera angle but it looks like he MAY have had his feet taken out from under him by the defender that fell down. Would love to see that from another angle.

I don't have a Kindle NFHS rule book but I do have the Kindle app on my computer. You can read pretty much any kindle book on your computer and most of them in a browser.

Copying and pasting generally works well but there can be a maximum limit of how much you can copy and paste.

4 second white going up court, dribble then foul. I'd say .5 to 1 second left. Maybe the foul occurred and some more time ran off. In the NBA and NCAA it would have been more accurate but perhaps here it ran out or to .0 something and they decided to call it. no problem at all with that charging call.

I can view Kindle books and documents on my phone, tablet, or computer. It's nice having the rule book and case book in a seachable format anywhere I am.

In addition to being seachable, can you easily copy, and paste, to post citations on the Forum, from your personal computer, using the Kindle Edition of the NFHS rulebook, or casebook?

I have a personal computer, and a laptop. No tablet (I'm not even sure what that is). No smartphone (I still use an old fashioned flip phone. I don't get a great cell phone signal at home, or at work, so why bother? I only use my flip phone (with a blue tooth speaker) during my daily commute back, and forth, to work).

Nothing wrong with the screen. It isn't a blind screen so he doesn't have to give space. Even if he had to give space, the white team player takes several steps before the contact.

The mechanics from this crew are ridiculous though. Every call is oversold- even a timeout

The reason I have it as an illegal screen, in part, is NFHS 4-40-2c (The screener must be stationary, except when both are moving in the same path and the same direction). The screener wasn't stationary until his left foot hit the ground right before contact. At that moment, White #5 was in mid-stride so there was no way for him to stop and/or change direction.

But again, that's just me thinking out loud.

I agree and if you can stop the video at :16, the foot of the screener is well-beyond the frame of #34's body.
