Interesting situation, in light of some of our recent discussions. Getting it right gets the ref punished.

Say what?  Getting it wrong got the ref punished.

Getting it wrong would have been to play on while his partners knew the ball hit the rim. Instead, they got together, talked about what happened, and ruled an inadvertant whistle.
Blow calls happen. They happen to everybody once in a while. To suspend a guy for three games because he kicked a call and then fixed it according to the rules is messed up. People who know I ref sometimes ask me if I have aspirations to work in the NBA. I just laugh, not on your life!
