As bad of a temper that I have, the funny thing is I've never lost it on a partner. I find it best just to get dressed and vent to a trusted friend or mentor.

I get that. I just think he needs to know how the the other official feels. (The one that was sold down the river)

He'd have one of two responses:
1. Dig in his heels and defend his call "for the good of the game."
2. Shrink and admit he was wrong.

1 is much more likely than 2.

It would be interesting to hear his side of the story and catalogue in under the I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE IT file.

1. Why are you looking at the end line at all?

2. Even if you are looking there, why would you have a count going?

3. When do you think the count is supposed to start?

I was under the impression he was going off of the game clock.

Watch him explain it to the coach. He's telling him that he judged the ball to be at their disposal when it was bouncing under the basket and the two girls were just looking at each other to see who would pick it up.

The actual details of what was discussed are hidden somewhere in the forum. I can't think of a good keyword to do an effective search for it.

I would have told the coach that my partner just came down from Canada to work the game and he counted the five seconds in metric.

Any coach worth his salt knows that metric seconds are longer.
