R2) Penalty of a Technical foul during an Interval of Play.
During a Basketball game we have:
periods of game (4 of 10 minutes),
extra periods (as many of 5 minutes as is necessary to break the tie), and
intervals of play: It is the time we take between every period of game and/or extra periods (20 minutes before the begining of the game, 2 minutes between periods 1 and 2, 3 and 4 and before any extra period and 15 minutes between periods 2 and 3).
a) During the interval of play between 1rd and 2nd period, one technical foul is commited by Coach A. The arrow for the throw-in by the alternating possession is for team A. How must the referees do to follow the game? The penalty for the technical foul is 2 free throws and posesion of the ball for team B. The next opportunity for the alternating possession we must give the ball to team A.
b) During the interval of play before the beginning of the game one technical foul is commited by Coach A. How must the referees do to start the game? Because we need to start the game with a jump ball, this is the only case during a game that the penalty for a technical foul is different: We will give 2 free throws to team B followed for a jump ball to start the game.
Rule question #2.
