Delayed entry after inbounds pass...

You never said anything about the correct ruling. You only said that your partner's call was a pet peeve.

Green: I'm not setting aside anything.

You said "forget this call." Elaborate on what you mean by that if you're not implying that the rule should be ignored.

He is not saying he is not going to follow the rule, he is saying he hates that a referee whacked a kid this year for simply running out of bounds and hated when a referee whacked him for cherry-picking as a player. Basically he hates when a referee misapplies or does not understand the spirit of the rule.

"Forget that" is a more PC version of saying "F--- that".

Tactic by newer coach several years ago made it waaaaay too easy for even newer official:
Throw-in by A1 from his own endline. He releases the ball and just stands there rather than entering the court after the throw-in. Coach yells, "Not yet...Not yet...Not yet...Not yet...NOW!" Thrower-inner steps onto the court and receives pass for easy, uncontested shot from the lower block. Newer official, taken by surprise by the admittedly rare situation, finally blows whistle and pauses momentarily. Gives the T signal.
Late, but right. Just took a little time to register what was going on.
The coach, of course, had no clue . . .
