Rich, I don't understand this. It seems to me that when you call a shooting foul in the second half you should end up in front of the coach of the shooting team. Whas the coach out of his box? Even if it was after the free throws you should have been the new lead. Did this occur after the free throws and a rotation?
Nothing too sinister -- he wanted an explanation and since the whistle was pretty late I felt he was entitled to one. So maybe it would be better to say that we met halfway. Once I determined he was going to rag me regardless, I kinda shrugged my shoulders and went back to the trail. Nice pickup -- I guess I wasn't thorough enough -- but I'm willing to slide up closer on a multiple shot foul to discuss the call with the coach if I don't think it's going to be too volatile of a situation.

I'm not even sure if the boxes were marked, to be honest.

Back to 2-whistle on Tuesday. I'm spoiled.
