It's stupid to make the refs make this kind of decision; it's begging for trouble.

There've been a couple times when players have come close enough to make me have to decide. Both times I went to the coach and told him he might want to have a chat with the player involved.

But if it was a clear dunk, no warning is necessary.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but this whole "you can't T without a warning" crap is getting old.

NEVER said that. I said JUDGMENT IS REQUIRED. See my post right before this one to JR. And to believe diplomacy, politics, and the good ole boy network among coaches, assignors, and ADs has nothing to do with getting games at the V level, indicates naivety.

Maybe we're mis-reading you, but when combined with this statement

, it sure looks like your intention is to never make this call regardless of the force applied to the dunk, or whether the opposing coach sees it.

Of course, "never" could simply be an example of hyperbole.
