That terrible Double Dribble call

[Zepharus]

Was a killer... maybe even a dagger in addition to being BS. oh that and the zillion open 3s we didn't defend

 

[Briancuse]

Terrible call by a terrible ref.

 

[Shark58]

Better than the new "the white Euro always travels" rule

Terrible call by a terrible ref.

Typical ACC referees who only love the original ACC teams.

The travel calls and that double dribble call seriously made me wonder if I was watching the same game as the refs.

 

[clayman32]

Guys it was a double dribble

 

[85SUAlum]

I'll give them the double dribble, but I couldn't see where MD traveled on either of those calls against him.

 

[STEVEHOLT]

What about where frank shoved a dude to the ground ... no T called.. then the dude comes back at frank like anyone would .. resulting in a double T and their guy with 4 fouls headed to the bench ?

Was that biased against us ?

 

[SWC75]

I saw more travels called tonight than I have previously in this decade.

 

[tbonezone]

we were double bonus with 11 minutes to play. um ... please not the refs tonite.

 

[gmoney44]

Another thread crying about officiating. The refs have nothing to do with our losses this year. They’re a banged up team that frankly wouldn’t be that good if they were full strength.

if you changed the jerseys on that call this board would lose it.

Again overall refereeing was poor, but there were poor calls both ways and we probably got the greater benefit of the ineptitude. That said, nothing wrong with calling out and discussing the bad calls.

The travels on Dolezaj were terrible. The inconsistent calls with regard to contact in the lane were terrible. The double dribble call was technically correct if you stretch your interpretation of what you saw happen, some calls just shouldn't be made because they are not game affecting or egregious violations of the particular rule.

IDK. When they showed it in slo mo, it didn't appear that he had two hands on the ball at the same time.

 

[tbonezone]

if i was game planning against syracuse first thing i'd tell my guards is that if we draw 10 fouls on their guards this game is over.

Basically the refs called a bad game. Some of these refs either aren't in proper position or just aren't good enough to interpret what is happening out there. Sometimes the action is too quick for them. And when both coaches are complaining then you know it's a problem.

 

[Newhouser]

the efs didn't cost us the game - we were in the double bonus half the second half. It was a double dribble and it wasn't a travel, but Yurt didn't go over MD's back, and Frank should have been assessed a foul on the scrum. Stripes are bad but they didn't cost us the game.

 

[tbonezone]

fouls were 16- 26 our favor. honestly where's the bias ?

 

[oli44]

The one travel call on Marek was awful. Other than that I didn't have a problem with the refs. We shot 14 more free throws. That was a double dribble. And I was worried they were going to double T Frank for both shoves.

We were in the double bonus super quick. But those calls were still terrible.

That double dribble action happens all the time and is likely the most disputed call in the pickup games I play. While stealing the ball, tossing to the ground to help recover it, pick it up and recover, then dribble. I don't know if it's technically a double dribble, but it sure looks like one.

 

[Orangeman]

It absolutely was not a double-dribble. You are allowed to bobble a catch, establish possession, then dribble.

Happens all the time, nearly every game.

The reason we lost is we simply don't defend three-point shooters and that's a tragic problem, but we got no help from the stripes.

Agreed. Oshae definitely double-dribbled, but Marek did not travel on that one play where he caught the ball 3 feet in front of the basket.

Yeah, except he didn't really bobble that catch. What he did was absolutely intentional. I'd love to have an actual ref take a look.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

Just out of curiosity, who else thought they were going to call the travel on Oshae's up and under dunk off of the pass from Moyer? That was actually very close to being a travel. Had to watch it a few times.
