Managing the game is giving B every opportunity participate in a fair and reasonable way. It is what BktballRef said: blowing the whistle, hollering "White Ball!!" blowing again and all those other things we do. After all that, you can't say the "cheap shot" is without warning. The Resuming Play Procedure doesn't give any room at all to let them off with a warning. If A is there and ready, and the ref has followed the procedure, what with two horns, and two whistles, it's B's clear choice, not my bad attitude.
