In the post, I'll warn with "Straight up!", or "Don't hold!"
During a throw-in:
- If I'm administering, I always (even on a sideline throw-in) say "Spot!" if it's from a designated spot.
- If the defender is standing right up to the OOB line, I say "Don't reach across."
- If I'm not administering, I will sometimes say "Don't push!" or "Straight up!" if there are 9 guys all jockeying for position.
I often say "No hands!" when a defender is "measuring up" the dribbler.
To the coach, "I need you to find your box, please."
