As a so-called "rook", I have had the oppportunity to work with many veteran officials. I pride myself in being in the proper position and focusing on my area. I tell my partner(s) during pregame discussions to let me work my area and discuss issues with me during time-outs or at halftime. I have yet to have a veteran try to work my area as well as his.

Any official making a statement to a coach or player showing disagreement is only putting themselves in the position to be responsible for ALL calls. The last time I checked, the only friends on the court you have are the ones wearing the stripes.
