[QUOTE="Deleted member 29907, post: 1581301"] The refs don't use a stopwatch - they use their arm to count 5 seconds (not perfect but as good as you can get without Google Glass). He counted off, with his arm 4 seconds and then blew the whistle. And the count stops when the ball is released. It was a blown call. As was the tough 3 sec call against Belo. Technically he was in the lane for 3.5 secs - which is a call. But earlier in the game (1st half), Garzilla was in the lane for 4 full seconds with the ball and was allowed to score. That plus the two blown calls of who touched the ball last out of bounds (Garza first half, Toussaint losing the ball out of bounds second) were the most obvious ones. So Iowa twitter guy really has nothing to complain about. [/QUOTE]
