Basketball Thread About Nothing

Never in my life have I seen "Over the Back" called in a game that didn't have REFS.

Ive seen it a couple of times but it was like OD over the back, like basically trying to get a piggyback ride and then hitting em with your arm doing so.

Carry gets called, has to be very blatant though. 3 second hell nah, backcourt naw.

5 steps with a dribble is normal? I mean there I no way that’s possible without palming the ball.

i mean…supposedly this was called in game but there isn’t an explicit rule on how many steps a player can take in between dribbles and to the extent players are even able to use hesitation moves involves some allowance(s) for carrying, if not explicitly, palming the basketball…usually as long as the ball has some rotation/spin and has not come to rest while in hand the dribble is considered live & it isn’t technically a violation

i think they should allow/bring back hand checking to give the defender(s) something to combat the increased freedom the offensive player has to dictate/manipulate/read the defender by carrying/floating their handle w/ the basketball

it’s crazy how the concept of a simple step-through confounds so many…everything that’s not straight out the textbook is a travel now i guess

The rules in the book are stretched out so far these days and argued 24/7 that I’m just gonna go by what my online ref naked eye test sees With that said, I wouldn’t have thought twice about this highlight if it was never brought up.

Why is it illegal?

Why is it illegal?

i think it’s that there isn’t a ‘gather step’ in ncaa but supposedly they changed that rule?

That last vid should be good on any level, not even debatable tbh.
