Sorry. I have it set to only be available if you have the link. I guess that means the embed doesn't work right.

What exactly do you want the Trail to do here? Utah gets the board and the ref waits to leave until the player starts to dribble up the court. A quick steal off a lazy pass and bam, Mr.Ragland Sleeves gets on ESPN.

I don't know if you work college, but they are pushing refs to be a step behind or even with the ball handler when they are coming up the court. It leads to situations like this, but if he doesn't do it, he might still end up on one of the training videos as "One of the refs who isn't following directions".
I feel like he was really far out on the court away from the sideline. If he stays wider he probably doesn't get hit by the player stealing the pass. Maybe that's just me.
