He really needs to develop this skill. Teams get away with murder against us. The one Tulsa kid committed offensive fouls (push off) five or six times. Not only did he get away with it, it was sometimes called on us. Adams was clobbered on the last play of regulation and the refs ate their whistles. And every game we are pushed in the back under our own rim rebounding with no calls, but while we pile up fouls going for rebounds on our end.
Tight games are often decided by such things. Calhoun wouldn't let the refs get away with it. Why can't he teach some of this to Ollie? Why doesn't Ollie understand the importance of it? Forget that it isn't Ollie nature. If he wants to be a great coach, he has to get better at this.
Yes, there will always be bad calls. Sometimes it works out, others it doesn't. I won't even say the refs are costing us games. (But they sure are not NOT making it easier). That's not my point. Just saying.
