Well everyone, I've now seen a T called on a flop firsthand. I had to do it tonight. Two really good sophmore teams. Toward the end of the first quarter my partner gave an official warning to the visiting team about flopping. I was actually going to go talk to the coach during the quarter break because his one of his players (#5) flopped to the floor as a player dribbled 2 feet to his side. Everyone in the gym hears and knows what my partner is warning the coach about. Fast forward to the third quarter. Fast break, I'm going to lead in very good position. Visitor #5 starts to go down 3 steps before the offensive player got there. I came as strong as I could with the T instantly. If I hadn't, the home crowd would have gone nuts as everyone knew they were warned (do I sound like I'm justifying?). Visitors coach of course hated the call. I had a pretty good working relationship with him all night. I let him vent for a second, assured him that his player was going down LONG before the offensive player was there and we played on. Visitor ended up winning by 2. My partner T'd a home assistant coach with 20 seconds left and home down by 2. How was everyone else's night?
