I didn't say I would wipe a made basket! What I said was, I would wait, if at all possible, to see if I could let a shot go. It makes no sense at all to blow just as the shot goes up, since with a made basket, possession is predetermined.


I would only blow on the rebound if it was absolutely necessary, ie, glasses on the floor in the paint, and 8 players jumping up and down (one other player is blind and trying to avoid a collision, the last player is confused about whether the play stopped when the glasses flew off, and is looking at the coach to see what to do). In facct, what I would do is just what I said I would do -- treat it just like an injured player!
