mick:
i can't describe exactly what i did (plus can't find the right words since i'm not american )
what i mean is you know, when you do a jumpstop your elbows are spread out. that's what i did, pivoted doing that. just creating space. hell, malone always does it
sorry if i'm confusing you...

bob:
there was contact. he kind of pushed me a little bit in the air, but i still got the rebound. it didn't really put me into a disadvantage.
the other bad calls were a lot like this, plus one was a buzzer shot that went through and was clearly shot before the buzzer (even my assistant coach said that). but i liked that call since the other team made it not us
also, in the other game, the ref took off one point from us, because he said the shooter crossed the line when shooting the FT. however, it was clear that his feet never crossed the line. he always leans forward on his free throws, and the ref was telling him not to. after about 5 makes in a row, the ref told him "that's it, i take a point off" (well not exactly that but that was the idea). the shooter never put his feet over the line. his upper body were over the line cuz he leaned forward... was the call right that time? or am i right - the ref made a mistake?

doghead:
i'm actually thinking of doing some officiating when i'm older (at least a junior or a senior)
btw, i've been posting here for a while now... usually i ask about things simpler than this that just interest me
