false double foul question/ and block/charge

[mutantducky]

what are you talking about? I just said I did a CG call but was wondering when it would end, head/shoulders or ball in front. The one I made was an easy call. When the player is dribbling up the side and the defender is parallel it can be a tough one to call.


The first example can be a tough play to rule and it would be strange to call both fouls. I don't think I have. But I think it is reasonable to see it as part of one play especially if a player picks up the ball for the drive, gets fouled, takes another step and commits a charge. It is one play. Why would you ignore the charge? If I had that in a game, I think it would be silly if you ignore the charge and let's say it was a shot. the player scores despite committing a charge just because it happened he got fouled on the arm a tenth of a second before the charge. So to repeat. He is clearly fouled by the defense going for a shot. So right now you have a two shot foul. Maybe you haven't even blown your whistle yet, because right after, the player in completing the shot commits a charge. The ball goes in. Are you shooting the And 1? I think clearing the lane and shooting two fts could be the better option and a more sensible one. If it is a tool we can use,why not do it other than that it is so unusual. Like that ref who called that Colgate/Belmont violation. He made an unusual call but he did it by rule.

And by the way CC- I only called two Tech's this whole season(not one on a coach as I never had any serious issues with them and have had several coaches tell me and my partners that we were the best refs they had all season. I had two coaches who had the best JV teams in the league specially request me and another person I ref with to work the game they played against each other at the end of the season because they like the way we do things so I guess I'm doing pretty good.
