When you officiate an area, your vision does not stop at the end of your area. You see through the play and must always be aware of the ball and know where it is. Do you sense this? No. Do you smell the ball? No. Is the ball calling to you? No. You have to see the ball to know where it is!

Well, those of us with presence can sense where the ball is...it speaks to us...tells us jokes...it buys us beer after the game...washes our cars on the weekend...it flirts with our wives and tells lies to our bosses, but that is another matter...we have achieved oneness with the basketball.
