So you can say this is what happen, the reality is they did not agree with your assessment, it was not called.

Peace

I agree with JoeTheRef on his point. Doing a chin-up & slapping the backboard should be automatic. I am from the Indy area, and Oden did this in HS too...and no one would call it here either! It's hard to blow the whistle when your jaw is on the floor.

Needless to say, I never got the chance to call it. I was asked 4 times to do his games but had contracts for other games.
