maybe that is why he is a "LONG TIME" DII/III official

Other than realizing the mistake difference men/women on the shot clock reset I think it is the right thing. We discuss things as BEAT THE TAPE.
not meaning to nitpick but after watching tape hundreds and hundreds of times the old adage "The tape don't lie" is BS when you only have one angle of the game! The only time the tape don't lie is with multiple camera angle games.

Also, don't try to "beat the tape" cause it sounds like your playing an odds game in which you might not win sometimes. Get the play right and if the tape lies to you with one angle so be it. I've seen hundreds of plays that don't look like much on a one angle tape but in fact, on the floor in the game they were absolutely legit!

Sorry to nitpick. I'm big on terminology!
