Stick 'em or not?

[The Canuck]

If they're ignoring the ball after a made basket, TWEET with a delay of game warning. "I've got a delay of game warning against Team A. Let's keep it moving boys, next time will be a T." If A players are within earshot, in a quieter voice, "I don't want to have to call a T this late in a close game."

Now we've stopped the game and will resume where we left off... a throw-in for team A behind the end line, administered by the officials, and therefore, with a count. Seems to me that's a preventative way of dealing with it, and personally I try to be preventative.

You shout at a ref, you get stuck. Doesn't matter who was right or wrong or what the ref did to trigger it. The great thing about our profession is that we have a whistle, and as such, even if we're wrong, we're right.
