Spurs vs Clippers Game 2 (Videos 2/2)
 

Could I see the backcourt violation that happened around 9:25 1st Quarter in game 2 Spurs at clippers. Ron Garretson originally signaled a tipped ball but then joe Crawford stepped in and started a discussion. Backcourt violation was the final ruling. Could you post it for review please.. Thanks so much in advance.

Also of note is the technical foul on Doc Rivers at 9:55 in the second quarter. Crawford whacked him in the middle of a Spurs fastbreak.

Here's the tech: http://streamable.com/tyfs

Announcer has a strange definition of a fast break.

Yeah, I wouldn't call that a "fast break" either.

It's semi-transition and the Spurs did have an open shot in the corner so I could see why Pop was upset. Nothing you can really do though except call it earlier or later. Joey was on point after this tech though, he called a great game.

Pop got whacked later by Ron Garretson for waving off Joey.

Semi-transition. What made up words or phrases can I use here?

I'll see Joey in camp this summer, if I remember I'll ask him about the timing of the T.

Of course it was... the ever popular 3 on 5 break...

The BC call --- it WAS tipped... and then it was tapped by the offense. Good fix.

The defense tipped the ball first. This ends team control under NBA rules...the subsequent tip by the offense means nothing.

Reggie Miller said the call was correct because it was a "controlled tap" by the offense. Is this correct for the NBA?

No he wasn't...the play is no different than when a player deliberately bats a rebound from his frontcourt to the backcourt.

So, basically, Joey reached across the court to make an incorrect call in front of his partner then?

The trail didn't see the deflection by Duncan...he didn't call a backcourt violation because he thought Danny Green (black 14) hit the ball (he signaled as much and was pointing at him). So the slot was correct in giving him information that the defense (at that point) did not touch the ball.

If the trail had seen the deflection by Duncan, he would have either signal a tip earlier...or after the slot comes in to tell him his information, he tells says he had a defensive deflection prior...making everything else moot...resume at POI.

If they had called the travel on Deandre Jordan, all of this would be moot. :D

Yeah, moot. Historic, but moot.

When does it cease to be a bat and become a brief catch and throw? Perhpas he considered the offensive player's actions to be controlled and a pass rather than a bat.

G5 FT question
 

Do the players not along the lane need to be outside the 3pt line during FTs in the NBA?

Take a look at where #11 of the Clippers is standing during Parker's first FT with 48.5 seconds left in the 4th Q.

Yeah, they don't call that. It's trifling.

NBA Rule 9-I-d (edited):

Players not occupying lane spaces must remain on the court behind the three point line above the free throw line extended and may not be touching the line or floor inside the line when the ball is released

Thought so. The rule is the same as NFHS, except that the player has the opportunity to move back out to avoid violating.

Sad that Scott Foster ignored this as it was right in front of him.

Was he still there during the 2nd free throw?

No. 1st was missed, 2nd was made.

Well, he didn't ignore it then. The player was gone by the 2nd free throw.

I don't understand your post. Are you telling me that the players may be anywhere they wish during the first FT under NBA rules as long as they are correctly positioned for the second?

I don't understand why a replacement FT was not awarded for the first FT after it was unsuccessful while a defender was standing inside the 3pt line.

Under NBA rules, during a free throw that will not remain in play, there is no violation for being in the lane early/entering from the outside early/players lined up incorrect/lined up when they shouldn't be. The only violation that could occur from these actions would have to be disconcerting action.

What is the purpose of the rule?
