Yes we had post-game & I also told them I would mail them a copy of the film.
Each of them just said they wish they could get those plays back... no biggie! We spoke like men & moved on. As a matter of fact I didnt even have to bring it up, which is always nice.

Come on fiasco, should an official in their 6th season have to explain who the calling official(s) are on block/charge plays in the paint when it comes from the Cs side to partners that are in their 14th & 30+ seasons

I didnt ask anyone here for personal advice regarding this play, this is what I asked:

Not that I dont like your answer (as if it means anything to me & where I work) I dont like you changing my questions. How bout that?

Do you talk about where to stand on t/o too
Around these parts, you dont come with an elementary pregame with savvy vets. If you dont know who has the last second shot at this level, then you shouldn't be out there! If you dont know who makes GT/BI calls, then you shouldn't be out there! If you dont know who makes block/charge calls in the paint from the Cs side...
When facilitating the pregame with guys that are respected vets & we've all worked together previously, we talk about plays & how we are going to deal with them.

Good thing this is early season and we can work and fix the things we would want fixed before the games become even more important.

Again, I'm not asking for anyones advice on what tref should or shouldn't have done. The question began with, "do you" NOT "what should I have done."
Hell, I barely apply unsolicited advice from the people I see face-to-face (unless they've hired me) so why am I asking people over the internet that I have never seen work.

FTR, the t/o came like 3 minutes after the no-call & I like to adjust on the fly when applicable. Now if the coach got a t/o right after that play, yes, no conference because everyone knows exactly what we're talking about.
