We have got to defend the 3. We can not just stand back and watch them shoot.

The rule is that the player must be BEHIND the 3 point line when releasing the shot, regardless of where they land after shooting it. It appeared to me that he started the shot directly behind the line and was over top or in front of the line when he released it.

It’s where your feet last touched the floor prior to release. You could take off from behind the 3 point line and not release it until you cross the free throw line in the air and it would still be a 3 pointer.

This isn't the rule.

You just have to jump behind the line, release doesn't matter

I was VERY shocked that it was counted a 2. Just initially the first gut reaction was thst it wouldn't have been even a question but then the announcer said 2 pointer... idk

It was a 3 pointer. Ref got confused and was looking at the NBA 3 point line which Jax stepped over.
But it was never corrected right? I can't seem to find it on the replay. Anyone got the time or a rough estimate of when he made that. Lol. I spent about more time skimming thru it looking than if I'd just rewatched it lol

The shot was made with 3:52 ramaining to make the score 74-71 Gonzaga. We scored 8 more points in regulation. 2 free throws by Williams, 2 free throws by Robinson, mid range jumper by Robinson, mid range jumper by Carr.

You guys spent 15 years complaining about Cal taking the air out of the ball while leading late and now you're complaining about being too aggressive with the lead. Funny stuff to be honest.
VERY TRUE.
