Message: [QUOTE="Bronxjeff, post: 2047906, member: 6058"] One very interesting analysis that came up in a different thread on this same at times infuriating topic: Officiating can seem particularly biased when the reffing crew hasn't gotten in synch with each other on the typical disputed type calls. The result is even though each ref may be being consistent, because they cover 3/4 of the court each team is getting different biases. For example, ref A is under your basket and calls a block even though the offensive player dipped her shoulder and flew out of control into your guard, while ref B calls your player for a charge despite the defender moving their feet into your guard. Well Ref A is at the outside wing on that call, whereas a ref B wasn't on the call in the first place. So sometimes it can take a whole game to even out the bad calls. I don't remember who explained this earlier in the year, but they did a better job of it and impressed me, so I hope they might chime in again. [/QUOTE]
