That's terrible advice imo. Just call the game. Officials aren't supposed to influence the result of any game. We aren't supposed to insert out personal philosophies into any call that may give a team an unfair advantage not intended by the rules. |
Chris Webber made it loud and obviously enough for more than one officials to hear and notice it. I'm arguing that if I'm the only person in the entire gym that hears the timeout, I'm going to hold my whistle until he make it loud or obvious enough to grant it. WE must exercise our judgement that fits the game. This scenario has nothing to do with COURAGE.
