great call

I find that to be a very challenging call to call in the first place, and get it right. Usually, as those kids go up in their vertical plain, they tend to bring their arms towards the shooter, losing their good vertical position. As far as the coach yelling, so what. Ignore him. Most coaches don't understand the verticality concept. A similar call happened in one of our games by my partner. Similar earful by the coach. He turned to him and said, "Verticality, coach." I know the coach heard him, but looked confused. I think he was afraid of embarrassing himself by asking, "Verticality? What's that?"
