It was all there. To be totally honest this was probably the straw that broke the camel's back. The whole game had been a series of rolled eyes and
"Oh, my God!" on a lot of calls. All this from a team who was quickly buried by the opponent and certainly one of the worst VB teams I ever saw. This was also the 5th foul and 2nd T of the game for this player. First T was for shoving an opponent after being fouled.

Well, you provided more detail. I thought the "Crap!" was because he missed the shot, not because he blamed you for missing the shot.
