Count my vote as a no call

I am with Chuck. There is nothing anywhere in the book that tells a player where to play defense, That's why we allow cherry picking...

I'd say the team was trying to be good sports because they did not want to play defense and let the guys score.

This kid was a weak player, I have coached teams and told my players let a kid score so he could feel good about being out there.

I get pissed when a disadvantaged kid goes in the ball game and a team has to press and harass him to steal the ball.

The fact that the kid could not make an uncontested layup is his own problem.

it was 50-17 at half do you think you really want them to play defense and have them beat a team 130-34 ?

Nope! get the game done!
