Misspoke a bit there, my bad. I think you sort of get what I was trying to say.

There was nothing in that game that made me notice the officials, or that made me say the guys really kicked that one. I had a rooting interest for Butler as I played against them back in the day and I really don't like Duke.

So what's the consensus on the screen by Howard at the end? Did he set the screen so that Singler had an opportunity to stop or change direction?

Methinks not.

You speaking about the half-court shot? I noticed a Duke player getting wiped out when watching one of the replays. No one way anyone would be whistling that.

That's not the point, is it? Was it a legal screen or not?

I don't know, I only saw it once and I wasn't watching the action of those players, I only saw the aftermath.

How about posting a clip of the play?

I don't have a clip, but you can see highlights of the game here, and the final play is towards the end.

Rocky,

I am reluctant to do the math

Going back to Valentine's "soft" whistle, I was at a meeting once in which two officials were somewhat arguing about using your whistle to "sell a call". One said it was important to do so to appear assertive. The other said just the fact that he made the call was assertive enough. He went on that he didn't have "anything to prove" to the coaches or players about his calls and that when he made a call, that was all he needed to do. If a coach or player disagreed with his call, so what? It wasn't his responsibility to justify his calls to them.

I thought it was an interesting discussion.
