2) It's called game management.
1) Iow, if the game is already determined, let the coaches throw chairs and the players swear at you. Anything goes just so you can get the damn game over. I got news for you, JMO. The rec leagues that you work obviously bear no relation at all with real basketball. That might be the absolute dumbest advice ever posted in the history of this forum. You NEVER ignore unsporting conduct just so get a game over. Ostriches don't make good sports officials. Neither do people without the testicular fortitude to take care of bidness.

2) You wouldn't recognize game management if it jumped up and kicked you in the head. You don't have a clue what the term means. Ignoring unsporting conduct just to get a game over is about as far from game management as you can get.
