I described the play. Salvatore is probably one of the highest paid officials in the world. My point is that being one of the best officials, he shouldn't have missed THIS call. I don't expect these guys to get ever call right, never said that. I would expect an elite official to get this call right though.

I see you didn't refute my comment on NBA officials allowing 3-5 steps just to allow spectacular dunks. That was really my point. Obviously, the rules have evolved, hence the yearly NFHS changes!! NBA officials basically ignore their rules to allow certain events to happen. That's fine with me, the NBA is just entertainment.

Never said that FIBA officials were the best. I saw two-man crews do a heck of a job, consistently, officiating games with the best players from around the world. Heck, I even think that some of the best officials working are in the NCAA.
