Hold the phone, I merely suggested a different view of the issue. Last I checked, this is still America, and I have a right to my opinion. Now, I don't recall saying this is the "ONLY" way, or the CORRECT way to handle this type of issue. Not every condition that can happen to you on the court is defined in the precious rulebook.

Several people have told you that that's not what the book says, and that's not even how it's handled in most of the country, but you keep insisting you know what's best. You keep asking questions that others keep answering, and then you are not answering the questions that people keep asking you. The issue has been focused on, answered and repeated, again and again.
Actually, you guys didn't get my point until about page 3. If you view this as one question asked and answer. You could say that. But if you view this as a discussion, which is the way I view it. Then engage the discussion if you choose. If you got nothing to say, then it's okay to past. It is not okay to attack another person credibility because you disagree with them. We are suppose to be better than that, we are the ones that are suppose to uphold the integrity. Yet we attack each other like piranhas on fresh meat if someone says something you disagree with.

Part of "the issue" is your authority to insist that you're right and everyone else is wrong.
Where did you get this from? I have no authority here. I am a nobody. I merely engage this forum in a discussion on the rules of basketball. Debate me if you choose, ignore me if you must, but don't hate me because I share a different opinion.
