The referee team, of course, is always in control.
You know about team control. I know about team control. But we aren't the ones doin' the yelling or complaining. I guess the point I was trying to make has to do with the communication aspect - how do we communicate with our partners, the players, and the coaches that we will not be shooting free throws on this foul? I use the rebounding foul as an example: if the ball is coming of the rim after a shot, and A1 pushes B1 in the back to clear out, I'll blow the whistle, give the push signal, and point the other way to let people know we're going towards B's basket. But, B1 will also be shooting the bonus. Now, in the same play, let's say A2 gets the rebound, then A1 pushes B1, I've got essentially the same signals, but we're not shooting the bonus. So, how will people know without doing a lot of extra verbal communicating? I would think a different signal would be a big help.
