Players and coaches no longer seem to know this rule.
Back in ancient times all players knew to toss the ball to the nearest official.
Of course, back then they also knew to raise their hand if they were charged with a foul.
Ancient times were often "more polite" times, seems that there was more respect for officials back then.
