This whole concept of locking down was a real fad around here for a while -- but we've eliminated it entirely from our conversation. The L goes where he needs to go to officiate and we adjust accordingly.

I'd say he pinched rather than come across because there's this effect that happens if you try to officiate a drive mid-rotation -- the whole thing passes in front of you and straight-lines you at the most important moment. If you can't get over and receive the play, step in to the lane to where you need to go to get it as best you can.
