Id have to disagree, 3 seconds is not called enough and as a ref should not try and justify to ourselves why we arent going to call it. Its a rule thats in the rule book therefore we should enforce it. The rule does state that if it is close and the player(has the ball, not a teammate)attempts a shot at like 2 seconds then no call. But too many times coaches can get riled up about the 3 seconds therefore snowballing into other things they can get mad at. All it takes is to call it ONE time early in the game and the players will adapt.
