New season, some observations (LONG)

[David B]

I agree on the full time out that might be a problem, but what we do is if we have to communicate about a ball placement or whatever, we simply go to center court or top of the key whereever we happen to be and review our situation.

Then we move to our spots.

One thing I have noticed at least with our coaches, they tend to save their 30's till late in the game and that makes it a little easier.

Usually communication between officials is more necessary later in the game.

As far as the DQ, we've done it that way since, well since I can remember. I think in the long run you will realize that you really didn't have anything to say to a coach anyway.

One of the keys to make it work quickly is for the scoretable to be aware of fouls and tell you immediately that is 5 on # etc.,

Then you know immediately and can communicate quickly with your partner etc.,

Happy Thanksgiving.
We are Blessed.

Thanks
David
