Three second call vs. Davidson

Was that the craziest three second call in the history of basketball? I think about 4 seconds had run off the shot clock, Gesell had just crossed the center line, and BANG -- three second call. The three second call, according to the more and more useless book of basketball rules, says the three second rule only becomes valid once the ball is in the offensive end of the court.

Officials are poor enough at calling the basic game. A call like that is so asinine it's impossible to even believe it happened-- except I saw it with my own eyes--and it was in an NCAA game.

Horrible!
 
I honestly do not know if the officials are supposed to start counting when the ball crosses half court or when it is inbounded. Either way, it was still a strange call. I don't think I've ever seen a three second violation, four seconds into a possession.
 
Way to bring up a meaningless call in a 30 point blowout that happened two days ago, like it had some kind of significance.

Dumbass.
 
Odd wasn't it in a game with one tall team vs. a short team. Almost like the officials were setting a tone of how things were going to go.

In high school the ball has to be in the frontcourt in order for there to be a violation. I assume it's the same in college. Anything that happens while the ball is in the backcourt is irrelevant.

Somebody needs a timeout.

Wasn't the score 5-5 when that happened? Not so meaningless at the time.

GTFOH

No, it wasn't. You can stand in the lane the entire time the ball is in the backcourt. The count doesn't start until the ball crosses the center line.

31 on the shot clock & you say correct call. I can only imagine how bad of a referee you would be.

If you'll notice they didn't start the shot clock until Gesell was well past mid court. Officials use the shot clock for 10 second calls but they count 3 second calls themselves. Woodbury was in the lane at least 4 seconds.

The game clock started but not the shot clock.
 
Im not sure, but usually they call it after a coach calls it to attention, and the ref was probably looking for it.

Then they should have reviewed the shot clock and put on the proper time.

That makes no sense. It was a turnover,clock resets.
