Need Advice
I'm still relatively new to basketball (but not officiating).
I've officiated other sports long enough to have a good sense of my strengths and weaknesses.
One of my biggest problem areas in basketball is I'm missing things that are happening in the paint when I'm working lead in 2 man. Yesterday I had 3 rec games (11th and 12th grade) and missed a tipped pass that went out of bounds and a deflected dribble that went out off of a foot. Both right in the paint, fairly crowded with bodies.
I do tend to stand near the baseline so I'm wondering if I'm narrowing my field of view by being too close to the players. Perhaps I could back off the b'line.
I would appreciate any suggestions for improving my ability to see the game from lead in 2 man.
I don't seem to have this problem in trail.
Thanks,
