How far will you go to save a game (PART 2)

[JRutledge]

I have not been in every discussion about this or pay attention to every single detail. I am just have to say something about one thing in this thread. I do not think our job is to get it right at all costs. Our job is to make solid calls that we can see and cover the things that are in our primary. If there is nothing going on in our area, we can extend our coverage, but it is not our job to call the game for our partners. There is a reason there are 3 officials on the court (at least in this example). If we all are looking at the same thing, then we do not need 3 of us our there. Get the call right does not mean every call we have to make. Get the call right would mean if we have a double foul, false double foul, correctable error or a very obvious rule violation, that we apply the rules properly. When it comes to judgment calls, we cannot agree on every call. Let the official that saw the entire play call their game.

Peace
