Get Rid of the Charge
« on: November 18, 2021, 06:26:21 PM »
It’s terrible basketball and college refs are terrible at calling it. I said it in a previous game thread but it deserves its own thread.

Could not possibly disagree more.  Offensive players already have the benefit of the doubt.   What is to stop them from lowering their head and barreling to the basket?

Because you can still call offensive fouls.  Being a roadblock isn’t playing defense

so youve changed nothing. refs still have to discern between off foul and block. why is it any less confusing

Yes, that is what I should have said. If you’re defending the ball and making a play on the ball, it can be a charge. But just sliding under an offensive player making no defensive move at all should not be a charge. At best make it a play on.

The play tonight that was called a charge should have been a foul on the defender.  He wasn’t playing defense.

Totally disagree. Playing good defense is getting to the spot before the offensive player. If the offensive player is able to bull through the defensive player good defense becomes a thing of the past.

If it is a play on then why would the defense need to move their feet and just let the player run into them and lose the ball.

If has to be a foul both ways or it has to be a play on both ways which will just lead to horrible play.

Getting rid of the charge would only lead to even more stoppage in play than we already have as ball handlers lose fear of the call and we end up with collision after collision that necessitate a whistle.

Holding your nuts and standing in a completely unnatural defensive position is not basketball.

Totally disagree. If they got rid of the charge, I'd have to start carrying cash again.

For all you Pat Driscolls Bo Boroskis out there who can't get enough charge calls...

https://youtu.be/poO7iPq1Y3w

This play... It's kinda bullcrap, right? That's exactly the crap secondary defenders are getting rewarded for. They're throwing themselves in front of guys and falling down. It's dangerous, and is sure as hell ain't "good defense."

I'm all for calling it when a guy lowers his shoulder on a drive or pushes off. No one is advocating getting rid of that.

There’s multi-generations of basketball fans that have been beaten over the head with what a great play it is by announcers and it’s been ingrained into the consciousness.

The charge call on Kolek was unconscionable, and it totally altered the course of the game.

So let the offense get away with pushing? Be it with body or hands?

Porky concurs.   Too arbitrary.  The game has way way too many fouls as it is and 2/3 of them are a joke.  Short of players tackling one another, Porky says let the kids play.  If that means CBB games routinely end with both teams scoring less than 40pts, so be it.

Separate from that, can someone explain the rule where Oso was fouled with the clock stopped at the end of the game? I thought that was supposed to be two shots and the ball?

Your thought is correct.  That and the Kolek charge were absurd calls.
