I also think the OP should not have modified what was said in the letter (da whistle) to make it seem like the coach was saying something he didn't.

Agreed that there could be another side to the story, but remember what the coach said that the offense lined nobody up and that defense secured the rebound. Going to the AP favoring the offense is not correct.
More importantly, our concentration needs to be better, especially at the end of the game. A lack of focus buried this crew which would be a shame if they reffed the rest of the game well.
