[QUOTE=JRutledge]Well Mark, who the best officials and the worst officials are is very subjective point of view. Also the "best" cannot work every night and every game. Someone that is not the "best" is going to work some time.



No you could not. Not everyone wants to be an NBA official. The top NCAA officials make more money than a rookie NBA official. They also have better job security and they are not considered expendable.




- So what you are saying is
1. we dont have the top 60 officials available.
2. If we paid more to start officials with years of college experience who had reached a level of expertise based on the measurement techniques we currently use we could attract better, more qualified officials ? Im for that. In fact, im pushing for that.

As far as being considered "expendable". Could you explain more about that ? Seriously, would like to know more about what you are saying there.
