I need to see the play and how far out player is etc. Time of game etc. As i've said many times, there's no legitimate reason for a player to have a hand or forearm on a dribbler. It's there to aggravate or hold. If the kid looks like he's got an open layup i'll try to layoff depending on what it looks like.

Again, they've made it pretty clear they want the whistle blown. If you blow it early on some of these you find out, for the most part, that you don't have to blow it later.

I don't see it as a disadvantage to the dribbler or his team really. It's a foul being called on that player. Goes toward team foul count. And most importantly, tends to stop it from happening rest of game.

There's a time and place to let it play out but, just as a general proposition…"don't call common fouls simply because the player is driving"…I don't agree.
I highlighted your error above. I see you struggle too!
