I can see eating the whistle in some cases. Like I said earlier...its frustrating as a post player to get 2 hands in your back moving you out of the way when you have position. Comments about keeping good post players in the game make sense to me but a good post player knows to keep his hands off the back of the guy in front of him. (Ok, maybe some of them know).

I wasnt strong side on this call. I have been working that into my game but I wonder if I even see the push if I was since it happened right in front of me (weak side).

Good feedback everyone. Thank you. I can see both schools of thought on this one. Hopefully I can apply the right balance of both.

If anyone cares, my call went without fan fare from the fans or coach. Maybe A2 and I werent the only ones who saw it!

Biggie and Willie gave you some pretty good guidelines to follow.The one thing that should help you in this type of situation is your own experience in banging with the big guys underneath when you play.You know yourself from experience when you've moved someone enough to get an advantage,and also when the contact doesn't mean diddley squat to the play.Call it the way you want it called when you play,and you shouldn't have too many problems.
