Agree to both

I was actually just thinking of the chart but do agree that the whistle and the hand go up together according to the actual written section of the mechanics.

Mechanics

Maybe not, but the mechanics state that the hand in the air is the stop clock signal. The whistle is more like an attention getting device, not a signal. If that little pea fell out of your whistle...

Already dead

Almost all of the time the whistle is simply notifying the players to stop playing because the ball is dead, it is not the whistle that makes creates the dead ball. When the violation occurs the ball...

Hmmmm

No it would not which is what makes this question so tough. So I guess I would have to alter my answer to "inadvertent whistle unless the ball is in flight"

My Answer...

The two that I think apply here are an inadvertent whistle and an officials time out. Every other situation that I can think of falls the into the :already dead" category.

Already Dead

The ball is dead when you recognize the time out not when you blow the whistle. If a coach yells time out and you take a moment to verify its a legitimate request (head coach, correct team, player...

Whistle Dead Ball

There are only two ways that the referee's whistle causes the ball to become dead. What are they?

I am posing this question to make sure the answer I have is correct and also to be certain there...

Participate no more

When is a player no longer a player? A player stops participating when they become bench personnel, an intermission begins, or the game ends.

Participating

When they become a player and the ball becomes live they have participated.

Really???

Dewey - Yes, we all used the library at some point.

Linnaeus - Lesser known evolutionist whose theories were largely disproven by Darwin so why would this even come up in elementary school.

Final Answer

Based on what I read in rule 5-6-4, since the tech was given after the buzzer the free throws become a part of the next quarter and we would start the new quarter with a throw-in for the team that...

Nice references. There can't be 5 people on this site that know off the top of their head who these two guys are. You were either a librarian or a biologist in a past life.

Not a good fit

I had heard them stated as "timing" violations which would be 5 seconds, 10 seconds, close guard, etc; "ball handling" violations such as traveling, double-dribble, etc; and "other" violations which...

More Questions

I had the same thought. Although you should probably shoot them before going to the locker room if you can since it happened to end the 2nd quarter, but if you don't get the chance then it would fall...

How do we define observed and discovered?

If an official is watching the game is he not observing all of the players? Of course, just because you are observing 11 players does not mean you realize there is a violation.
