johnny d, I would agree with your comments under other circumstances but I don't think this is a play where I should have been on the court more at Slot or closed down to the play. It's a run-of-the-mill illegal screen. If it were a harder screen and bodies were on the floor then I would certainly close down but didn't feel a big reaction was necessary for a small play. I don't see how I am walking away from the play, I am walking past it to go report. I do agree that my signalling mechanic needs work, I didn't like when I was pointing one way and pointing back at the player who fouled at the same time. :D

You are right, it was a run-of-mill call. When I said close down, I didn't mean close down hard or far like you would for a play with a big reaction or bodies on the floor. Just a few steps towards the play. IMO, it sells the call better than a couple tweets on the whistle and makes it seem like you were closer to the play than the 25-30 feet you were when you made the call. Not a big deal either way. Most important is getting the call and then working on that mechanic. Like I said originally, good get. |
