3 Seconds: You Make the Call

Featured Replies

There is no 3 seconds on an inbound play. The count doesn't start until the ball is inbounded.

 

That is correct. I have seen it called though.:lol:

Withough looking at any of the answers yet......

 

1. I would say yes because he has a foot in the paint.

2. No, Ball is not in play yet.

3. No, ball in not in the front court.

4. Yes, ball never changes possession.

5. No, because a shot was made.

6. No.

If the 3 seconds occurred after the A inbounding player had been handed the ball by the ref, then yes.

 

That's originally what I thought Clyde's #2 question was asking and misread the part about it being in the backcourt.

Time and Score is correct.

I protest your grading of my #6 answer. Your example included the fact that he did end up shooting the ball, so I took that into consideration in my answer that he would get (a new) 3 seconds to shoot. I am going to give myself 5 of 6, which is probably good enough to put me on the floor of most high school games. :cool:

 

If you're saying he would get a new 3 after he shoots (and I assume) then rebounds his missed shot, OK.

Hey, it happens.

 

I saw a JV game recently where the offense was called for an illegal screen and the official let the fouled team shoot the bonus. Incorrect. Got to know the rulebook.

Yeah it does happen. The funny thing was, that the ref that called it was the one that was on the baseline with the inbounder. Should have been counting the 5 secs for the inbound violation.

That would be referred to as a "training opportunity."

If the ball is still out of bounds. Then there should be free throws.

Time and Score is correct.

 

Oh well, still got 5 of 6, which is practically brilliant for a baseball guy.

I'm not getting that??

The way I understand the rule is - Possession does not occur until the ball is inbounds. If the ball is still being taken out of bounds and a foul is called against the team inbounding then free throws are awarded if the team is in the penalty. If a foul is called on the offensive team while in possession of the ball then no free throws are awarded. You made the commit that he should of been counting 5 so I assumed the foul was committed before the ball was inbounded. Maybe I assumed wrong.

No foul. A 3 sec lane vioaltion was called before the ball was inbounded, by the baseline ref, who should have been counting for the 5 sec inbound violation.

My bad - thought you were referring to an illegal screen.
