experienced partner

[Terrapins Fan]

I have 15 years experience, I worked a game today where I was the junior partner. Both partners had over 20 years.

Great game, tied at the half and no team had more than a 3 point lead. With under a minute to go in a 1 point game, senior partner comes running from BC as trail, yelling ROTATE, ROTATE. I was lead, 6 players on my side, 4 on the other, ball near the foul line, C has the match up. The ball has moved all day, rearly settled. I rotate, ball fumbled and A falls on top of it, no call. She passes it out and B1 & A2 battle over the ball. I have nothing and C charges over calling a foul on B1. He is about 45 feet fr the action.

I feel like the pressure got to him and he had to take over. Anyway, BW shoots 1 plus and misses. A1 Rebounds with a 1 point lead. 12 seconds left. TO, foul, foul, foul, horn game over...the foul count was 8-4.

You can learn a lot about your partner in a tight game.
