There it is. I'm usually amused by the booing, which typically comes from the defensive team's contingent. Little do they realize they're half the problem.

Fortunately, we only saw the stall-ball once in our tourney. (Easton/Hodgdon, for Gapper's interest.) Of course, the cries for the shot clock come, but considering a shot comes every 16 seconds, on average, I don't see the point.
