Hutton commerials of old, when I speak, people listien (at least they humor me and act like they are listening,  ).
Now listen carefully, and I do mean listen and do what I tell you. Your first responsibility is to officiate your primary coverage area (PCA), and NOT officiate your partner(s) PCA. I can assure you that with ten (10) players running around on a court that is only 50 ft by 84 ft (H.S. dimensions) in size, you will have all the more than enough to do without worrying about your partner(s) PCA.
With regard to fishing in my pond when you have enough fish in your own pond, you can bet your sweet bippy (Google Rowan and Martin's Laugh In) that the conversation that we have will be one sided and I will be doing talking and you will be doing the listen, and if you still insist in fishing in my pond I have the experience to make the rest of our game a living hell for you. And I can do it while still looking and acting professional.
So get your head and a$$ wired together (ask a Marine what that means) and get rid of the notion that you and only you have the correct call on everything that happens on the basketball court even if it happens in your partner(s) PCA.
Am I irritated with your attitude right now? Yes I am. I just wish that you could attend a basketball officials camp and I could be a staffer at that camp. Your attitude would go over with that camp staffers like a lead ballon.
I will end this lecture at this point.

You sure do make a lot of logical leaps in your post. Do you do the same on the basketball court?
I couldn't care less what
you think about my attitude. For some reason that's supposed to change how I officiate?
ETA: It's pretty clear from your post ("I will make the game a living hell for you") that you're probably one of the officials I was talking about in terms of ego. If you're going to make my game a "living hell" for me for following the prescribed NFHS mechanics, well, God help the people you really DO work with. Sheesh.
