what does a ref think when a player argues or talks?

When I call a foul on player and the he/she does not like the call, I never allow that conversation to get the best of me. I do not single that player for the rest of night either. The are nine other players on the floor that I have to watch.
As for during FT's, I do not mind if a player wants to come and ask me what he/she did. That is something that I stress in my pre-game to the captains. If you do not understand call, please do not hesitate to ask. Plus, I think it develops a good relationship between players and officials before the game starts. Players realize that they can come and ask our officiating crew a question.
