Okay then, we agree. He's stupid. If you don't know, ask. Don't make something up.

So do I. But I've got enough court awareness to know where the ball is. I have a pretty good idea that if I'm at L and the ball is nowhere near my area, then I'm not going to tell a coach it's on the endline.

If I don't know, I ASK. I certainly don't guess.
