Let me correct a coach's quote

Quote:
“He's a terrific shooter. Everywhere we go, he gets ridden all over the gym.”
"It's too bad that every time he drives, he lowers his shoulder and initiates contact. Many times he throws himself into a defender with legal guarding position and it looks ugly, but the officials correctly make no call since there is no advantage gained. Matter of fact, if he hadn't been properly called for two player control fouls, he would've played more of the third and early fourth quarter and we might have won the game."

Now I feel better. Seriously, the kid has some talent, but his first move is to lower the shoulder. He could've picked up a third PC foul, but the defender turned to the side and the contact simply didn't cause either an advantage -- had the defender held his ground, I would've called a third one.
