Not a good situation that continues to escalate with each similar play.

I'm probably just venting as much as anything. These few non-calls were the few situations that led to frustrated players and coaches and a spotlight on us rather than a very well played game.
I guess my theory is, unless it's a train wreck, I'm trusting my partners on their plays. I know I've had plays where there was no contact and both players went down. I've had plays where it could have been a charge, but the defense got a steal and a layup. Unless you absolutely know different and feel you have to get it to save the game (not just to make it a little better), trust that your partners passed for a reason.

Did you talk to them afterwards?
