I think so, too...somehow the whole message was pared down to what the friend told the OP'er. Somehow I don't think that was the point the "NBA guy" was trying to get across.

Here's an idea, why not just participate in the conversation without being a sarcastic ***? Hey, that just might work!

If by "perceptive and deeply analytical" you mean "paranoid", then , yes, I think that coaches are that way.

I didn't mean that as a dig toward you personally. I meant it to mean that we should all work to eliminate "cheap" calls and concentrate on being consistent and only call fouls and violations that actually occur and have an impact on play. Sorry if it came out wrong. I guess I'll have to work on my writing ability. Don't want to get a reputation here for not being able to contribute seriously from time to time.

Yes there was a lot more before and after, but this was the part I wanted feedback from the forum.

The overall points were aimed at his two partners who the clinician felt were not "taking care of business". All three Ts in the game were for very obvious profanity directed at different times to different members of the crew. C, P, AC. received Ts by the one referee. The clinician did specifically stop the tape on the calls immediately following only the Coach T, and at that time made the statement that was the catalyst for this thread.

I think the point is to have the courage to continue calling the game following the T. I think many, if not all, of us have been in a situation where a T is issued and plays are called in favor of that team when they really shouldn't be. If you haven't been in a situation like this, learn from those who have.

I thought this thread had something to do with how some officials treat a coach after a T. Specifically, how the calling official's partner(s) treat the coach.
