The DI & NBA camps I've attended says referee your PCA while seeing as much of the court as possible. As a matter of fact, they want two sets of eyes on particular plays with congested action areas. You know there are front & back sides to some plays right?

When I had the HS mentality I couldn't get past the first week of HS post-season. Then I started following the higher level camps advice & became a State Tourney Official. Go figure

Why are you looking there anyway is so basic...
If you have an unengaged match-up (non-competitive for the HS mentality refs) do you just stay there watching those 2 or 4 people or go to the next layer of the play that can hurt you???

I'm not going to compare post-season success with you, but I disagree with how you are thinking. Yes, the NBA mentality is to have more than one set of eyes on certain plays, but that doesn't mean it is a free-for-all.

Are you using the opinions of players to validate your opinion/position?
