Oh, and I second that!
Who said that? Nobody, you just made it up.

A wise man said that, I told you, but you would not believe me if I told you it was me, so I just say the wise man. The wise man also said, be not too concern with who said it, but what is said.

Have a nice day

I have heard many clinicians say something to the effect of "It's better to miss something that did happen than to call something that didn't happen."

I think there aer exceptions to that rule, however.

I have heard clinicians say not to guess on plays, but that is usually associated with not being in position. They are usually not talking about a regular, every day play. Based on the person that cannot get a GT call right (which are not very hard to call at all if you have worked a lot of college ball) I do not think he understands the concept very well.

Peace

That is a bunch of crap, and what color is the sky in your world? A regular everyday play huh? No you moron, it is any play, regular, unregular, everyday, tomorrow, next week, any time it happens play.

I will not argue what you think, we are all entitled to our opinions. My concern is that you don't pass judgment and convict someone for life for kicking one call, especially a call not seen that often. I doubt that there are many coaches making over 6 figures that would argue that the shot was still going up on the GT. It's a quirk and I'm not going to say you can't even get everyday calls right because you miss this one. You live and learn and you move on, or in my case, put the ball back in play.

I told you and everyone that this team could win. They got ballers and in a seven game series the youth start to seperate themselves from the pack. This won't be a cakewalk for the Spurs. I'm happy for Cleveland, Mike Brown and the LeBron. The NBA rules are catered to players like LeBron. So we will see what happens.

1) Kicking a call is the same as missing a call. That happens to all officials at some time in their career. However, not knowing a basic rule like goaltending sureashell is not the same as kicking a call. Not being able to make the correct call because you don't know the rules happens to the Old Schools of the world, not to real officials.

2) I get it. Other people live and learn. You don't. You just put the ball back into play. Gee, why doesn't that surprise me?

You want to talk about a bunch of crap? First of all I have seen coaches that barely make 4 figures argue that their players should not be called for a GT based on this fact. I worked my first summer games last night and there were a bunch of times a goaltending call was very close.

Here is the other delusional part of your comments. No one said anything about this team or even cares. This is a competition, of course they can win. What the hell does that have to do with you not knowing basic rules and basic officiating philosophies? Nothing!!!

Peace

Wallace needs to go. I am so sick of his act and his whining. Everything is someone else's fault with him. He lost his cool at a critical point in the game. He gave up on his team and himself. He is a lost cause and Dumars needs to dumb his azz.

Peace

Based on recent postings here, this is turning into a fanboy site.
