Fair enough, however it was things like 6 kids in a big circle going up for rebounds, or they would be tied up for a jumpball and their was some swinging going on. Stuff like that. We called the basic stuff, the blocks, charges, the shot fouls ect. In fact both teams were in the double bonus in both halfs, we had something like 52 fouls. It was just a messed up game
