With all due respect, if he took a swing at a player, are we going to ignore that as well? Or if the coach comes out of the box to chew on a ref? Or if they hang on the rim (oh, i guess they already let that one go).
My beef is that it bleeds down to the lower levels. I understand where rev is coming from: (they can do it in NCAA). And I have no problem telling the 9th grader jerk "they can T them up in the NCAA, too" I just want a little consistency. I will end with this question: If it was the state championship of your respective state, and the top player did that, would you call it?

I like the no "T". The Biggest game in the nation. I like how the crew used common sense officiating in not calling that. C'mon guys would you really call that if you were in the biggest game (state title, ncaa championship, etc). Great job to the crew!!

Though one time I did trade a 5:15 JV game for a 3:30 frosh game, so I could get to my daughter's band concert. I still flog myself over that at least weekly. Oh, and I've turned back a few JV games for V games. I guess that makes me a bad man too. And I would not have called that T. I'm going to hell. I know it.

A notable part of this situation to me was that Packer made such a big deal about what a wonderful decision it was for the official not to call the T. I didn't figure anybody there ever thought for a second about making the call. Guy who slammed the ball was not even involved in the action immediately before the whistle.

Since my name is being tossed around here, and I was in the chat room with all you bozos, I might as well share my two cents.

Is it unsporting? IMHO, it's not. It's frustration directed at himself -- not an opponent or an official. Is it delaying the game, as somebody else mentioned? It was clearly not, as a TO had just been granted. So what's the rule basis for a T here? I don't think there is one. I know there are officials who think it's an "automatic", but I just don't see why it should be. You say "every player knows you don't do that". Every player also knows it's a foul to get the rebound while you're behind another player. We don't care what the players know about the rules. If you are an official who knows the real rules and understands the game, then you can pass on the "call" without worry.

I don't care for the idea that you don't make a call because it's the biggest game of the year. Rules don't change because of that. If you make that call in the first or 10th game of the season - then you make it in the NCAA Final. Period.
However, that said - I wouldn't have called the 'T'. I would have gone to get ball and told him to dial it back a little and the message would have been clear.
