Disagree ChuckElias. It's our game and our burden to do what is right. The calling official doesn't have to be "overrulled" because of a meeting with his partner. He can change his own call. He called backcourt once team B got the ball. Give it back to them.

Hmmm, footlocker, one of us isn't understanding the other. (In particular, I have no idea what you're getting at in the underlined part of your post.) My point was that the 10-second violation was blatently and obviously incorrect. In that situation, the non-calling official may (should) go to the calling official and explain (quickly and emphatically) that why the call is wrong. Then the calling official will go to the coaches and say "Oops", give the ball back to the team who was incorrectly called for the violation and continue play.
