To me, it's putting the ball-handler at a disadvantage by not having a patient whistle. If his RSBQ is compromised to the point where he can no longer effectively drive, then I believe a common foul is necessary, but other than that, I say "see it through."

And yet, I see others whistling during the drive, getting the common foul. Thoughts on this?
Their idiots, you are great...Im going with your patient whistle.
