I understand and agree, I'm just arguing against the need to blow it EVERY time we have an end of qtr/half. I guess I meant to infer that it goes without saying that you blow the whistle and wave off a shot that may be close.
What if the winning team just inbounds the ball with five seconds left in the game/qtr and stands alone in the backcourt and lets time expire. What good does a whistle do in that scenario?
