Guys I use 2 hands all the time except in my assosciation games and games where my partner wants to use one hand. I don't do it because it is faster I do it because I feel while I am saying "red 23" the bookeeper sees both numbers instead of their being a delay on the three after you have done said it. I hate saying "red two, three", with a passion, don't know why I just do. I do agree it would cause some confusion though because the NBA is the only group of officials that use this but that is because there are only about 60 officials, whereas there are about 200 in my local assosciation. I think alot of guys would have problems going right to left on their hands so the bookeeper could read left to right.
I just threw this around for some feedback on what people thought. Good insights.
