Interesting....
I love this call...It's absolutely my favorite call to make....I know it pisses off players who THINK they are playing some LOCKDOWN D.....Stupid defenders want to slow the dribbler with a hand on hip and drive them here or there....Not on my court baby!
The best part is the kid who picks up his first foul of the game on one of those...I'll instruct him to keep his hands off the defender...he'll acknowledge me...next trip down...TWEET...same thing as the first....and then by halftime he's got 3 fouls for the same dumb thing...Now the coach is getting in the kid's ear "You see the ref is not letting you handcheck, why do you do it!?
