Definitely not a fan of the Ts mechanic here. Almost looked like he waved the L off.

He pretty much did.

My question is so when does it become a blarge? He obviously wasn't pulling the TV Teddy straight up mechanic with both his fist in the air. He obviously was signaling a block while his partner was waving him off to call a charge.

At what point during your signaling are you committed to it being called? I've had this question before and never really had a concrete answer.

Exactly. It was obvious to God, Mother, Country and the other official that he was coming out with a block. He had a whistle and a preliminary. That's why I have always been told not to give a preliminary.
I agree about how it was handled on the court. Perfect time to huddle and talk it out and make sure everyone is on the same page.

Two whistles, in the paint, agree 100%. That's what is taught here in my little corner of Connecticut.

Is there a BIG corner of Connecticut?

Well, I was kind of joking that it wasn't a blarge because the trail hadn't signaled anything to that point...

Any video of this? I saw it live and was shocked to see the T wave the L off. I'd like to get another look.
