How about finding a reason to stay back with 7 players who aren't going to announce, "Mr. Official, we are on the brink of fighting, pleas stay back and watch us."
We should commit errors of ommission instead of errors of commission. In other words, if you aren't sure (which big O doesn't seem to be) don't blow the whistle! It seems like big O is using the photographer and everyone in the crowd to help decide if this play, which wasn't in his area to begin with, was a foul or not. That should tell us what should have been done...nothing.

This is the best post I have read in a long long long time. Absolutely, 100% correct. (Except for the spelling of "pleas".  )

Puh-leeze... 
btw...there's a word for officials who 'bust @ss' downcourt as new T on steals leaving opponents behind them: rookies.

I find it funny that those that have probably not done a 2 person game in forever are the ones giving an opinion.
