In that case, what the heck is the point in even trying to defend a shot? If you leave your feet, someone can jump into you and have it be a foul on you, even if you're not intending to have contact with the shooter.

Might as well just stand flat-footed and have the guy drain the game-winner in your face.

(Not saying anything directly toward any of the previous posters, just pointing out the issue with the rule.)

If I'm Tyler Strange at 5'9" tall why am I trying to jump & block a 3 point shot anyway might be the better question..

There's no need to micro-analyze the situation- it was an obvious foul

Several years ago, someone set the Spirit Rock on fire after a game. I thought it was a unique idea--until I heard the LUPD sirens coming down the road!

Great defensive coaches teach primary defenders to never leave their feet

Noone is being dumb on here right now. That is unusual.

Yes. Most weekday ASN games are at 8 PM. Makes for a long day for guys like me but its ok. No I will not be there. My lifelong "unwritten" ban from all things Big South continues. :P I have never measured up I guess because I have tried on many occasions to get Big South work. They did let me work for free the past 2 seasons in the Big South Tournament so at least there is that :oops: This year I thought I would get the ASN games but they vetoed ASN and named their own announcers. Lepler and Ross do a great job though. Lepler is a Coastal Carolina employee I believe and my man Ross just does his own thing working as a caddy in the off season. He is a lot of fun to be around.

FYI I'll be in Tennessee on Thursday for ASN calling Tenn St @ Tenn Tech then I head to Philly next week for a game in the old neighborhood at LaSalle!

Thanks. I was just curious its seems we always play 7 o'clock games. I do like the 5 o'clock start time we had at Longwood at their place. It makes sense especially when schools are so close to each.
