I usually pre-game on a double mark by the C and T to let the T take the shooter but the C leaves his arm up and does not stay with the shooter but helps the L with rebounding action. A dropped 3 pt mark can lead to confusion. Was it really a 3 or not? Why did he drop his mark?

Not to beat an expired equine, but if I were the AD hosting this game, I'd say to myself, "Why pay for three officials? I could pay for just two and still have too many eyes on the ball!"

Glad They Got This Covered



Any assigning pool or association that tolerates ballwatching like this ought not complain if their stakeholders abandon 3-person in favor of 2. It's their own flippin' fault.

Battling Signals -- Who's Ballwatchin' Here?



Embarrassing. Ouch.
