Sure! Beat up on me!
I see your point Kelvin.
I've worked with this man for 10 years and it probably wasn't much of a shake. It may have even been a look of no response. I knew he didn't have it.
I am sure he didn't jump it because the ball was solidly on my line and he simply deferred to me to either guess or go to the arrow.
You be well.

Mick, was this three whistle? You said you were 'center'. Did you not give your other partner a chance at it, he may have had some info. The reason I bring it up, is a couple of weeks ago, I'm center and a three point shot goes up from top of key, not my area. I am free throw line extended looking in but I see the attempted shot block and ball deflection. It goes out of bounds and lead properly blows whistle and looks to trail for help. For some reason trail didn't know, so I tooted my whistle and let him know that I had the tip. It was no biggie, I just remember thinking "why didn't he at least look to me when trail didn't have a clue". Even though your trail may have been no where near the play, he may have caught something on the 'look through'.
