Really hoping that there doesn't have to be any moderation involved because a certain noun is/isn't capitalized. Assume the best in the poster and assume he/she didn't mean any malice.

As to the video...well...

First thing I noticed, and Nevada pointed this out...the trail is so far out of the play. He has absolutely no connection to the play at hand and by taking a position where he is, he's mentally made it more difficult for him to come in make call if needed. Trail should ideally be at about the 28' mark unless the ball actually takes him out further.

As to the slot...this the why people talk about having a strong slot/center. This sequence is exact reason why people should advocate for using 3....assuming the slot/center does what he's suppose to do. A slot doing what he's suppose to do...gets the first foul...at very worst, the 2nd foul. He fails in just every way possible. The worst part of all this is the center/slot has no urgency or feel for the game on this play when he calls whatever he called (I didn't see a clock issue at all). At the absolutely worse...you miss the two fouls on this play...you have to be aware of players going to the floor and then squaring off like they did. If he closes in with a strong presence, maybe he's able to hold off the melee. But by the time he recognizes what is happening, it's too late.
