This must be an old video because he said "the defender moved his feet".

I'm not sure that was ever relevant, by rule.

I'll also disagree with his statement that "this is one of the hardest calls for an official to make."

If you are "refereeing the defense" and you know the position of the defender this is not a difficult call.

Yes it is a bang bang call, but not the most difficult call we make.

What is the most difficult call we make?

Nice that you still remember the common people, but I know that a man of your stature has a member of his entourage to set up the halftime buffet.

I think it's a toss up between traveling and basket interference.

Edited: But if Padgett is ordering pizza, or better yet, has a halftime buffet, I'm going to work on Juulie to see if I can wrangle an invite to come work as the third official in their next game.

Who do you think orders the pizza?

I'm not wasting time watching this. I already watched the first one and can merely extrapolate to imagine the rest of the series.

To hear the crowd tell it, the calls we have the hardest times making are "over the back" and "keyhole."
