21 days B455 8 seconds The shot clock shows 15 seconds when the referee calls. Correct 8 second violation call?

70 days A1170 Act of shooting The defender falls on the 3-point shooter before White 7 has taken the ball and started her act of shooting, so the basket cannot be valid. However, since the player shooting the 3-pointer has already touched the floor when her defender falls on her, the act of shooting has ended, so no free throws shall be awarded. therefore White 7's basket is invalid, and White team's throw-in comes from the sideline.
95 days B453 8 seconds The ball is touched by the defensive player. Correct 8 second call? The defensive player touches the ball in the white team's front court, the ball is transferred to the white team's front court, so there was no 8-second violation.

133 days B449 Dribbling As soon as red 15 receives the ball, the first touch of the ball is already a controlled tap to the floor, so it is considered a dribble. The subsequent dribble is already a double dribble, so it is illegal.
139 days D59 Complex The technical foul called against the player taking the first free throw was the player's 5th foul. The 2nd free throw for White was executed by a substitute who took his place. Did the referees act correctly throughout? YES.

140 days B445 Backcourt Backcourt violation? (The player's left foot is completely in his back court.) When the player taps the ball he does not control the ball. When he catches the ball, and gains possession of it, his left foot is in the backcourt and his right foot is no longer touching the front court, so the player is considered to be in the front court. He can then legally pass to a teammate who is also in the backcourt.
140 days A1165 Charge-Block FIBA Tough Calls: Correct decision by the referees. White #7 did not respect the elements of time and distance of Green #55 and was moving when the contact occurred.
