It started pre-game

As the V coach was saying he'd rather not, R was saying it wasn't an option. I'm looking back wondering if I shouldn't have rung him up for this one.

You should have asked him if we could proceed with one fewer coach on the home bench for the 2nd half.

I likely would've asked him that to see his reaction.

"there's no continuation in high school basketball"

was that something changed back in the day? I actually had a ref in my first year tell me that. I was like wtf are you talking about? He even was a good ref, albeit we only did a couple of games but it seemed he was on top of things. The strange thing was even though he said that repeatably he didn't follow it.

Why do people have to use the word "continuation?" Either the shooting motion (which includes more than most officials think) started or it didn't.

you didn't have to ask that one - it can be arranged!
