Lead can quickly recover to the post...or a lead as good as BNR !!!!
Why do I get the feeling that several posters in this thread know the calling official on this play and are backing their buddy.

I have never had anyone characterize a 3pt jumpshooter with a single defender as a two-official play.

What the heck is the Trail supposed to be watching, if not these two players? The Lead is telling us that he doesn't think that the Trail can officiate 1v1 basketball. Perhaps he wants his game check too.

I have never met the official in question and if someone does not think this guy can officiate, he would not have been on the title game. Something tells me these guys know each other and something also tells me after seeing the video the Trail is thanking the Lead and probably bought him a beverage of some kind or will as a result.

It is one play, if that is all we have to talk about then we are doing just fine.

Peace

No one here is backing Mr. Anderson. His schedule speaks for itself. What we are saying is that he didn't have anything hot to officiate at the present moment. He took a peak at ball...saw contact on the shooter gave DJ a chance and came and got it. I'm sure DJ and Jeff may have had a conversation about the play.....if Kitts didn't like the whistle he will tell Jeff as well.

Again our point ( Rut / BNR & myself )....if you have NOTHING active and there is a shooter involved, which isn't in the next county take a look at that play....he did and thought it needed a whistle. Again we can argue whether or not it is a foul but we agree that him on ball when he had NOTHING going on in his primary to be OK.......

1. Seems that you are too close to the people involved to make an objective judgment.

2. Ah, yes, Mike Kitts the Final Four official...I recall many of his Big East games. How could I ever forget when he allowed Seton Hall to play with six against Georgetown for 10 of the final 12 seconds of the second half of a tied game? The action was bookended by two time-outs and included two made baskets and a held ball. That's some excellent game awareness.

Sorry that is their names.....if it was three west coast guys I would use their names as well.

Why such a negative approach about Mike Kitts....did you try out for the MAAC and he didn't hire you ???

No, I went to Georgetown and watched him work several times. That's what I observed. He's probably a nice guy. It's nothing personal. I will add that he hung on WAY too long. He could barely run his last couple of years.
