2) I don't know if Pete really does advocate BillyMac's description of the Board 6 way. I would not presume to speak for him, particularly on an intenet forum.
3) I would not agree that ALL violations should be judged on advantage/disadvantage. (For example, line violations such as OOB.)
4) I would agree that SOME violations should be judged on advantage/disadvantage. (For example, palming/carrying.)

I won't comment on #1 or #2 either because of a lack of any kind of actual knowledge.
(3)- You and I agree on that one.
(4) You and I probably agree on that one, even though we don't agree on some of the details. Personally I think that you gotta be consistent in calling palming/carrying all over the court, and I guess that the FED must kinda agree also, having made it a POE in the past. How do you answer the player that says "Why now? I've been doing it all game". Do you respond "Yes, you were palming the other times but I didn't think that it shoulda been called then". Now....3-seconds....10-seconds for a free thrower...maybe a fisted ball...fine.
All violations---> never imo. Another point......I really don't think that you can
teach official how to use this type of judgment. I think that it has to be
learned through experience, and some officials never will learn it.... no matter what. Jmo.
