Hey, I never said that NBA officials can't officiate...Just that the mechanics are (practically) non-existant!
The NBA cares about 1 thing.....making money, and to make money, you gotta sell tickets. To sell tickets, ensure lots of scoring and few whistles! Fans don't go to those games to watch dead ball action.
Its' really not fair to compare NFHS or NCAA to the NBA.
2 different birds with different goals, and 2 different philosophies for officiating. To me, the NBA is very boring, but Ed Rush, et el, all obviously are good at what they do, otherwise they wouldn't be there!
