They use the NBA rules and mechanics, but no way is it a "pro" league.

Um, yeah, I was certainly aware of that. Usually when someone says that they are working pro leagues though , they are are talking about the players being paid for playing in games where admission is being charged. Personally, I don't count rec leagues as being related to pro ball in any way, shape or form. That includes the Jr. NBA leagues too. Rec leagues are rec leagues. That certainly is not a put-down of rec leagues and the officials that work in them either. We service rec leagues of different calibres in our area too. I also know that some rec leagues use NCAA rules too. That doesn't make them college games.
I just got the impression from Mr. Taylor that he was experienced and actually working in real college and pro games. He did state that he has worked pro and college ball.
