Last Friday, A1 on a fast break, comes down and lays the ball in. B1, trailing the play, jumps and slaps the backboard about a foot from the top while the ball is nestled in the basket. He was showboating and I popped him. Of course, you know what the coach said, "You're the only one to call that all year."
I could never slap the backboard less than a foot from the top. I guess that's why I'm less lenient. But it's not why I caught heat for making the call.
