Since we're not talking about a player with the ball, I can live with that.

I've actually never called a 3-second violation (meaning I have more T's than 3's), and I had this same question last night, but about myself. I've always been taught to referee the defense (probably why I have more PC's than anyone else in my league), and I think I over-ref the defense and tend to concentrate much less on the offensive players in the post. Any suggestions on how to see everyone?
