I'm redundant. fourteen white, one, four, white, push. two shots. I used to say " i have a foul on ", but I dropped that because that's why I'm there reporting in the first place, right.

I used to say "I've got" - however, my butt was chewed several times by evaluators and I overcame that bad habit......imagine that!?

FWIW - "Blue, one, four, hold. Two-shots."

You should pick one or the other, but stop saying both.

Eye contact with scorer first

"White"

"One-Four"

mechanic only- no verbal- push

"2", but if its really loud, just 2 fingers.


Followed by, on occasion-

"Yes coach, he was shooting" or
"no coach, he didn't travel" or
"Yes coach, we'll call it on your end too- it's only 15 seconds into the game"

I prefer to verbalize what the infraction is, you may use the push legal but the player undercut another player and I will verbalize "White 15, he undercut him."

Agreed. If it's out of the ordinary, I'll let 'em know what it is.

Describing the call? That's what Jay Bilas does...........IMHO, no need to justify your call, assume it's not going to be questioned.
