Maybe not a tech but certainly has to be addressed.

He's down 10 after making a 3 foot fade away . . . how much trash can he be talking .

Seriously though, I'am all for highly competitive games but I don't know whats gone on before or who's been talked to about what. I'm never going to 2nd guess an official who T's unsporting behaviour to set a tone and keep control of their game.

Nope. I even watched it twice yesterday before posting. He does a perfectly legal move.

no travel, he just steps through with his non-pivot foot. Nice move

Oh I agree, at the high school level. I'm just wondering what the bar is for this level given that I see this action go unpenalized nearly every game. Watch the player he woofs at; he doesn't even react.

If the action "certainly has to be addressed", I think we're over that bar. Good point on the person he's taunting ... but I still think this warranted the T.

True, very true. Sometimes I like your sense of humor - this is one of those times.

Generally I respond to unsporting behavior by showing the offender a yellow card.
