A minute of complacency ruined 24 years of excellence.
If you're asking me, the tournament officials have it easy in comparison. At least they can try again next year.
Accountability....is a powerful and humbling thing.

I have to agree. I noticed that a couple of officials who screwed up rules situations in last year's tourney were back for games this year.
Example, during last year's tourney at the start of an OT an official whistled a violation for a jumper grabbing the ball after it bounced on the floor. My opinion is that is not a tourney level official.
