And lastly, all the guys reffing from the middle of the key - especially on drives to the basket??

I haven't noticed this one quite so much in the tournament. They did tell us at the beginning of the year to take a couple steps into the lane and then back out again if the play came back to your side. But I don't think there was ever the intention that the official should stand in the middle of the lane to officiate the play.

Chuck, the way I got this was it is no longer strictly against the laws of nature for us to ref from there as you said - in & back out if the ball comes back - but also if you're getting a good look from under the basket don't be afraid to stay in there. I kinda like this look when the ball & 7 players are around the hoop, *if* there's enough room for me to back up a few feet.
