“I don’t really know how to answer that,” Castle responded. “I mean, I sell calls too sometimes. I mean, I can’t lie. But I mean, it’s really just a field thing, especially in the playoffs, you know. If it’s too egregious, the refs aren’t going to bail you out. They’re going to make the two teams, they’re going to make the better team win. So, I think just taking it game by game and not trying to put yourself at a disadvantage. I don’t really think it’s about selling calls or not trying to sell calls to make yourself look a certain type of way. You know, I think we talk to the refs a lot, especially me in particular, but most of the times they’re right. So, I mean, just having a short term memory. I mean, whether you fall down or not, if you get the call or you don’t get the call, it’s not really something you can change. So, I think for us, just playing the game and seeing how the refs are calling it.”
