Why move to the hoop with a play instead of stepping up so the play opens up? Why not take a step onto the court to see between players in the corner? Squating down, putting hands on knees, etc., is all very cute but it does nothing to help with angles.
You just described the way David Hall officiates.
Did I do that?
