My best games are when the level of play is at it's best and when my partner and I are in the offiating zone and the flow is just flowing, Both Coaches putting all the energy on their teams and not on the officials. Then both teams thanking us for letting them play. I was clearly in the advantage/disadvantage officiating.
Now! on the other hand I had adult men competitive games last night (club ball) where I was the only one blowing my whistle throughout most of the game (90%)I'd say and the reason being is that my partner never officiated and said to me at half time that he mostly umpires baseball. I replied "no problem at all just to call the obvious." As the game continued I was well informed by the conversation that I was going to carry him once again. Well to make a long story short I called the game because of the unprofessional profanity, misconduct by the players towards me. They felt that I needed to drop that chip on my shoulder but they didn't realize the inexperience of my partner that only blew his whistle when it was completely obvious and had no primary or secondary area. I had my eyes all over the court just to try and keep up. It's those type of games like these that make me appreciate those dedicated hard working basketball officials out there.
