Foul while in the act???

The players should be taught not to worry about what the officals are doing anyway. And as I stated before. . . the call may have been 100% correct. . . the only thing I am saying is that we as officials should work to have that patient whistle, to see the whole play, then to take action on whether a foul is warranted, free throws should be given, or any other penalties should be asessed.

It seems as though too many officials have quick whistles which can get you in to trouble, and I don't necessarily mean from the coaches, but from the way a game should be called in general.

That's a completely different discussion, one that I'll be gald to have if you want to start a separate discussion.

But once the foul, NOT CONTACT, occurs, there's no reason to wait for anything else.
