Block/PC + a little help? (Video)

[jeschmit]

Here's my take on it.

Yes, we all need fists up on fouls. I am one of the worst at this, and I've been working on it this summer at camps... Tough to do in the heat of the moment though.

Why is the lead so deep? He's way to far off of the endline in my opinion. Yes, I think we need to do what we can when we're in tight quarters on the endline, but this is a little much. He should probably be on the edge of the paint for the letters to be in a better position.

This is a tough play for all three positions, however the center has the best look at it. This is a prime example of being able to referee your primary while being aware of your secondary. If the center was able to recognize his next competitive matchup, he'd probably have a whistle on this play because...

This is another play where the center should know that the lead and trail are not in a good position to accurately call this play. The lead had on-ball in the corner and picking up the secondary defender is tough for them in this play. I feel that the trail was probably straightlined on this play by the way it curled around. A good center on this play would realize this and would come get it.

I'm not going to discuss the block/charge because I can see arguments on both sides of it. I am glad however that there was a whistle on this play, as if there wasn't one, it would've been an elephant that the crew would've missed!
