Dunk and Hang on Rim (Video)


Would the hang be enough for you to give a T?

Not a chance IMO. He has significant momentum going forward and lets go once that has expended.

It's 50/50 in my opinion. If a partner whacked him, I would support him.

Agree. He didn't just hang on for momentum but did a bit of a pull-up to go along with it. I've let such actions go and I've called such actions.

I agree. Can see arguments for both sides.

I agree, it's close. IMO, not enough for a T. If he does a full chin-up, sure, but during his mini-chin-up, he does look down into his landing area. So I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

I don't think he hangs too long but I don't like the pull up.

Nope.

If the defender(s) - in this case, black 11, is close enough to put their hands up and react to even their perceived possibility that the dunker might contact them somehow, I'm not going to even get close to splitting that hair.

Sounds like some people are looking for a violation/foul. If I have to think about a play, then chances are I'm not blowing my whistle. If I see a violation/foul I blow my whistle without thinking about it. Like a knee-jerk reaction.

Let's face it... our judgment/opinion matters in whether we blow the whistle. The majority of the time the play is black or white, but every once in a while a play will enter the gray area. And that gray area can bring different calls. It's too bad, as being consistent is our goal, but until the robots take over officiating that's the way it goes.

Just be sure about your call, and be able to explain why you called/no-called it.

Great play! (no T, but it was close, he seemed to pull himself up a bit)
