I see it once a yr or so.

If the toss is way off to one side or stolen on the way up. Kill it.

I was taught - "Be alive at the tap! Don't sleep walk into a game and get off to a bad start!" Start the game right!

(Does seem less important now that there is only one JB per game.)
Called it once when a jumper practically took the ball off my fingertips as I released it. I had a very late whistle because....I needed time to get my whistle in my mouth. The very fact that the R doesn't keep a whistle in during a jump ball (for safety reasons) might be part of the reason this isn't called very often.

Generally speaking, if the ball is anywhere near the apex, I don't care. It's the occasional egregious "theft" that I'm concerned about.

If that is part of the reason, it speaks volumes about your U1s

Bob nailed it, I don't think the R should call this pretty much ever. Being directly below the ball does not give you the best angle here, actually gives you the worst.

LOL! Nope, it was a two person game and the U was focused on the non-jumpers.

But your point is fair.
