I played a lot of basketball when I was a teen, almost 45 years ago, and I don't remember referees (that's what we called them back then) ever saying, "On the floor". Even going back thirty-plus years to the beginning of my officiating career, I don't remember officials saying that. Exactly when did this start? Who started it?
