Tough one on that last throw-in. Seriously, how many of us would have the guts to make a call in that situation?

Actually ... "that call" would have been easy to make, as the first call is simply a warning.

I haven't seen the play, but are you sure about that? One of the other posters claims the inbounder was hit twice. There is no warning for that, it goes directly to FF1 on the first hit.

One of the posters was me.

Looking at the replay, it appears the contact was less egregious than I thought, and may have been over the court, if that matters. He definitely hits his arm though.

Any contact with the thrower in is an IF.

Bill surely knows how to work the refs. I rem'ber speaking with a colleague ref of mine who attended the "Bill Self Summer Camp" and worked as a volunteer ref for the scrimmages. He told me that coach Self said to his players: "if you ever disagree with a call--and you will, then it will all work out in the end, the refs tend to balance the calls, so it all works out in the end, just keep playing hard."
