I played Semi Pro not long ago. I have a question. Please tell me if you would call a foul or let the game carry on.
A player shot a jump shot. The ball was clearly out of his hands. I had blocked the shot. On my way down my right
hand/wrist hit his finger tips as his arms were still stretched out. The ref blew the whistle and called a foul on me.
I asked the ref to explain that to me and he said the shooter didn't finish his follow through. I was completely baffled
by this because the ball wasn't in his hands whatsoever and I am allowed to come down. Is that a foul and would you have called a foul?

^^DEPENDING ON THE GAME AND HOW IT IS GOING I WILL MOST LIKELY LET THAT ONE PASS...BUT BY DEFINITION IT'S A FOUL...BECAUSE HE'S STILL AN AIRBORNE SHOOTER UNTIL HE TOUCHES THE GROUND...BUT SINCE YOU HAD BLOCKED IT BALL WASN'T GOING IN ANYWAY...IF YOU TIPPED IT I CAN SEE WHY SOME GUYS WOULD BLOW THE WHISTLE BUT ALL IN ALL ABOUT FINISHING YOUR FOLLOW THRU I NEVER HEARD ANY ONE EXPLAIN IT THAT WAY...THE CORRECT ANSWER SHOULD HAVE BEEN HE'S STILL IN THE AIR...
NOW HERE'S A TWIST TO YOUR SCENARIO...IF YOU WOULD HAVE JUMPED STRAIGHT UP, BLOCKED IT AND HIS FOLLOW THRU MADE CONTACT WITH YOU.....NO FOUL...CUZ YOU HAVE THE RIGHT OF VERTICALITY...THIS IS Y WE TELL BIG MEN TO JUST KEEP THIER HANDS STRAIGHT UP...AND NOT SWIPE AT THE BALL...YOU KEEP YOUR HANDS STRAIGHT UP...YOU HAVE THE RIGHT FROM THE FLOOR ALL THE WAY TO THE CEILING.
HOPE THIS HELPED!

Thanks for replying. You cleared things up a lot but it still bothers me. The ball was clearly out of this hands. I didn't jump vertically when I blocked
the shot. I was about 1 1/2 feet away and slightly jumped towards the shooter. The only contact I made with him was when I was landing. When the
ball was released I didn't touch dude at all.

Would you have retaliated in that situation? Or does all professionalism go out the window?

AFTER SHOWING THIS TO ONE OF MY SUPERVISOR'S HE SAID WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO DEFEND OURSELVES...SO PRETTY MUCH THE GULLY WOULD HAVE CREEPED OUT.
I REMEMBER A CHIP GAME A WHILE BACK WHERE THE UNCLE OF A STAR PLAYER CAME OUT OF THE STANDS AFTER THE GAME AND KNOCKED A REF IN THE MOUTH CAUSING HIM TO LOSE TEETH. THE SAD PART WAS THE UNCLE WAS ANOTHER FELLOW REF AND HAS BEEN BLACK LISTED FROM EVERY OFFICIATING ANY SPORT ...EVER!
MOST OF US HAVE REGULAR JOBS...I KNOW AN MMA FIGHTER WHO REFS JUST FOR THE $$ AND SOME COPS AS EXTRA CASH SO YOU NEVER KNOW WHO YOU ARE DEALING WITH.
