...on second thought I will just state the reasons instead of all the drama.

After the game was completed...the Coach came up to our "locker room" and stated that he thought we missed the last second shot his player took and made at the end of the game. It was close...but, the C opposite table on our crew of 3 made the correct call...the player shot the lay-up at the buzzer with the ball leaving his hand just after the horn and light came on the backboard. (It was later confirmed as a correct call by an ex-official that was there and had access to the video)

I told the Coach that 1) He was too late for me (I was R) to write it in the book as a protest...since we had left the confines of the court...and 2) It was a judgement call, not a misapplication or misinterpretation of a rule.

...working nights, just looking for something to write about to stay awake.
