I know that Mendy and Earl admired and gave credit for mentoring them to Sid Borgia, but I don't remember watching him. According to them, he was the best of all time.
Of course there are a lot more who would be on my list if it were bigger, like Jim Capers and Tommy Nunez.

Sid's son is now the director of NBA officiating development. Just a quick little tidbit I thought I would throw in there.
