Whose call?

[Kelvin green]

My 2 cents

Strong-side officiating is fun.
I learned strong-side from a NBA ref many years ago, long before it was popular in NF ball..

If you go across the paint and dont ref the ball, you'll miss a lot, you may need to go across to pick up big boys banging but where will the ball go most of the time?

Think about what looks better and easier to call a foul that is three feet in front of lead or 17 feet in front with players moving around. When lead picks up ball strong side, the trail assumes the same officiating as if lead were opposite lane and ball was there, Trail has the off ball stuff, perimeter and weakide rebounding. That stuff is easy for trail-- Heck if I have a partner like Drake and the ball is even slightly above FT line extended, if they are going 1 on 1, we'll talk and I'll take it...

You just have to communicate before the game and then non-verbally during the game so your partner knows when you have the ball down low...

I agree 100% if play starts in Trail's primary and goes to the basket it has to be Trail's call- the best thing lead is doing here is guessing---lead should be off ball and has not got a good picture there of what's going on
