The GREATEST call NEVER made was when Richie Powers ignored Paul Silas's request for an illegal TO at the end of the first OT during the triple OT Celtics-Suns Playoff Game.
What courage he had.

I know the NBA is professional but if you are an athlete....do you want to win it on an admistrative T?

I tend to lose my patience with Coaches that start on you from the Jump Ball. The absolute WORST Ref in the world is equally bad both ways. Statistically, it's not going to affect the outcome or give a Team advanatge/disadvanatge.

My feeling is that these Coaches are probably frauds and don't know the game well enough to be watching their players and trying to see where adjustments need to be made.
If you really are Coaching, 75% of it is watching what your Team does defensively. (My opinion).

I do tend to get PO'd at Refs that don't protect Airborne Shooters and allow the HS age kids to get creamed like Allen Iverson in the NBA. I see that a bit too often.
