Everyone has been talking about calls that was made, that should have been made on a different player, missed calls, ect. I wasnt to make a comment on the calls, and this one is not a judgment call. It is wrote in the rules solid as can be. Baker was at the free throw line in the first OT. Hit the first one. The ref hands him the ball. The ref backs up away from Baker so he can shoot it. Bill Mike who was roughly 45-50 foot away from the ref that handed Baker the ball tells one of his players when he wants a time out with another ref less than 5 foot away. The first ref blows the whistle, runs back to the free throw line, takes the ball away from Baker, and gives Paintsville the TO. My argument is once he gives the player the ball for the free throws, the other team CAN NOT call a time out until after he shoot is. The ref that gave Baker the ball to shoot is the same one who called the TO and took it away from Baker. The end result, Baker missed the second free throw, Pikeville was up by 2 at the end of the first OT. Baker may or may not have hit the second if he wasnt iced during the time out. But it allowed Landon to drive down, get a rebound and a put back to tie it up for the second OT. Being down 2 with seconds to go is different than being down 3 which might or might not have have been what happened.
