If you're going to use 3 officials, find 3 officials who know the system.

Look, even with 2 officials, the Lead is going to go ballside. Just keep doing it. You seem to think it's BS and that's your right.

Well, we're making progress. You're still stating the obvious but you're no longer calling attention to the fact.

It's BS that has served me pretty well, however.

In what regard? Are you the go-to guy to break in officials to the 3 man system in the last week of February?

So pre-game however you want. I'm going to tell my new guy to rotate if he even thinks he should rotate and then go back if he's wrong. In the second half, we can tone it down if we have to; but I'll bet that we don't have to.

I'll spend the pre-game not dumping tons of new stuff on my partner. Let's talk about the game we're about to work, not "finding a reason to rotate".

But obviously it's your right to disagree.
