Referee Quotes

[paxsonref]

I believe it was ex-NBA official Richie Phillips (and someone correct me if I;m wrong on this) who said to a coach who was arguing about a blocked shot/goaltending play said. . . The ball had yet to reach the apex of its parabola towards the goal, therefore, there is no goaltending. I always kinda liked that one. His advice was also to use big words to coaches, because most of them wouldnt understand. (No offense coaches. . . )
