Honestly, I think the best thing the refs could have done as a show of solidarity was actually call the game by the letter of the law.
ie call all travels, carries, grabs, pushes, backdowns, moving screens etc.
That would give the message that the players are not perfect. We let them play, at the same time the benefit of the doubt should be given to the officials in situations like that. The ref knew he kicked the call, and corrected it.
