20 Years Experience
Chicago, IL
Male, 60
For twenty years I officiated high school, AAU and park district basketball games, retiring recently. For a few officiating is the focus of their occupation, while for most working as an umpire or basketball referee is an avocation. I started ref'ing to earn beer money during college, but it became a great way to stay connected to the best sports game in the universe. As a spinoff, I wrote a sports-thriller novel loosely based on my referee experiences titled, Advantage Disadvantage
If during the game, it is technical foul if the team conveyed inaccurate information before the game to the official scorer.
After the game, when the refs leave the visual confines of the court there is nothing that can be done (unless the state allows) post game protests.

Give it a couple seconds to move. If not, the shot is over and so is the game.
