I put the ball down for the first time in probably ten years last week after waiting about 5 seconds with no sign of breaking the huddle at all.

If you show that you're breaking the huddle I'll wait but if you're just ignoring the horn, especially if the opponent has honored it, we're not being fair if we don't set it down.

Exactly. It's one of my favorite moments when I give the ball to a team who is ready at the second horn and they are able to score an easy layup as the other team is sprinting to try and get into position. Usually clears up any problem we have getting them out of the huddle in the future.

In the games I work, it would be the perfect recipe for a technical foul.

If you're serious, this is horrible advice unless everyone does it that way where you live and it's expected.

I save this technique for the AAU and travel youth ball leagues.
