Not sure what you want to know Mike. Because if you are talking to a coach and he is talking to you I would not be in the conversation as a general rule. The minute he puts me in it, I have a say. A lot of this would also depend on the pre-game we have and the philosophy we agreed upon before the game. This is something I always want to talk about when talking with partners.

Peace

Late in the game, I have a banger at the dish that is an out against his team. He comes out and is upset at my call. While questioning it, he points to you a few times and says, "I expect calls like that from him but not you, Blue." Do you dump him?

Just asking.

He shouldn't have to. You should have taken care of it first.

Are you going on something other than the two linked videos? Both of those videos have obviously had portions cut out, so we can't tell from them exactly what the manager did to get run.

My opinion is based on what's shown here in this thread. I thought I had mentioned earlier in the thread that there was a caveat to my opinion, which is the lack of knowledge of exactly what was said.

Tim.

Thank you. That was my point.

Yes, you mentioned a caveat about not knowing exactly what was said, but my point is that both videos have cuts, so we don't even know exactly what happened. That means we can't really determine why West ejected Johnson. We weren't shown everything. If there is an uncut video, we might get more.
