BigT-

From what I have gathered in listening to guys who have wanted to chase the idea of officiating as a full time job (NBA guys especially) they should consider moving somewhere where there is quality year round baskeetball. In his court club interview Monty McCutchen talks about moving from Texas to Los Angeles in order to pursue both school (a Masters at UCLA) and basketball (eventually in CBA and then the NBA). This year's two new NBA hires (Ben Taylor and Steve Anderson) both live in Orlando. Ben moved to Orlando after completing college in Tennessee. I have heard that a couple of other NBA guys have lived in Atlanta for a time as young officials in order to be in a "hot bed" area.

Hope this helps.
Chris
