I've done this before. "Coach are you saying you're getting cheated". His answer will always decide what I do next.

I like that. It puts the ball back in their court.

Good stuff, but remember every so often coaches just want to leave the gym no matter what you say.

I once had a partner inform the coach that he "should worry about coaching, and I'll worrying about officiating."

The coach was down big in the first half and told my partner "based on how we're both doing tonight its probably a better game if we switched."

No T and I don' t think we could have called anything for the next 2-3 possessions we were laughing so hard.
