Nope. I can't remember the "wrong" official having to make a call (center on a post player, for example) all night long.

By over-rotation I don't mean rotating for the sake of rotating -- I mean not worrying if it's a bad rotation and hesitating when it's likely the right thing to do (talking yourself out of it, which I see a lot of officials do). I mean, it's easy to take the few steps back to the other side of the lane from the close down position, so what's the deal.

Yeah, yeah, I saw the smiley face.
