moving screens

[JRutledge]

Communication is very important. True you should not make one statement that dismisses these terms without some explaination, but I also feel you should not use them either. Many officials use these terms to describe fouls and that is what I feel is mostly wrong. Just because a coach says "moving screen" does not mean that I am even going to comment on it. At least I will not say anything until I have an opportunity to explain "why" this does not apply. I also feel that it is not our job to get screamed at either. Sometimes officials will not talk to coaches that do not come to us in the proper spirit. Especially if they officials feels that a coach is just screaming at the top of his/her lungs and will not listen to what we have to say. If that is the case, I would never consider any official for being unprofessional for not acknowledging every complaint from a coach.
