If you watch the video closely all the more reason to call a foul. The Crestview player got hooked and bumped and knocked to the opposite direction away from the basket. He had the defender beat and enough time for a shot. As I said, ML was up 12, scored 6 points last quarter and did not hit their foul shots. Losers blame the referee.
Well if they are going to do it I don’t think they should do it on an anonymous site.
The ML player clearly pushed him with the body. Watch the video and you’ll see that he was pushed with the body.
And you’re acting like officials are thinking of all these different things in the moment. It looked like a foul. ML and others can complain all they want, but it was a foul.
You’re right. 6’7 guys should not exclusively shoot threes. But in ML’s case, Niekamp was one of their best 3 point shooters. Will you just not let him shoot 3s? Make him exclusively stand inside the 3 point line? The game has evolved.
it's not 1987
I think you could make a legit argument that basketball is the hardest sport to win a state title in of all the OHSAA sports. Almost every high school offers basketball, only 4 divisions and the variability in the outcomes of the games due to hot/cold shooting nights, foul trouble, etc is probably greater than the variability in any other sport other than baseball. Also, pretty much every school tries at basketball. There are a lot of schools that couldn't care less about several other sports but basketball is a money maker so almost every school puts some effort into it.
I’m not talking about Marion L. I’m talking about basketball in general. If ya have some guys much bigger then the other team, feed it inside!
He’s saying the game has changed.
Why contridict yourself. First ya give them cover by giving them an excuse “ it happens so fast.. they can’t think that fast “. .. and then in the next sentence claim it was a foul.
Watched it two dozen times.. along with my ref buddy. No foul. Kid tripped over his own feet. The floor reached out and got him
Hard not to touch someone when he trips and falls on ya
it looked like a foul. And it was a foul. What’s contradicting about that. I think I am stating the truth. And maybe you need to get out and see some more basketball games. I’m saying it’s a foul regardless of situation. Rule book isn’t any different for the end of a game.
Wasnt a foul… according to professionals and 95 percent of the people on the net.
It’s gotten much more physical.. all the reason to put lineman under the basket
Hooked? Wth.. the cv player was pushing off with his left arm.. or trying to grab his shirt so he wouldn’t fall flat in his face as he went to the basket out of control
Fouls are fouls regardless of time in the game
Ok..so you would agree then that Cv should have been called for a foul on the next inbounds olay
Yup
Ok.. we are getting somewhere.
it's also why any big man in the NBA or college that has any skill is from a country you can't find on a map...because every American coach lived in the 1980s until like 2012.
