Right, Wrong or T?

[Mike Burns]

Excuse me! Do I call a foul or do I report a foul has taken place? Do I call a violation or do I report that one has taken place? Do I look the other way because there is a few seconds left and not report that foul or violation?

If a coach or player crosses the line into Technical Foul territory then it will be called no matter if it is in the first minute or the last. They are the controllers of their fate, not I.

It's not always that "cut and dried". The origional question posed in this thread has to do with the fact that many times these fouls and violations are determined by our JUDGEMENT. Perhaps this is the reason that it may be said that basketball is the most difficult sport to officiate.
