I agree with JRut...the whistle, which is when the rest of us know it is dead, is not when the play was dead in reality. When the calling official saw the foul, it was dead then..I am of the opinion, if you think you must do something, then just let the calling official know that the basket went in...if they are having a brain lock and forget that if the shot was away it was good, then maybe this will shock them back to us here on earth...but I would not try to "convince" them of the call, by doing that it sure looks like you are fishing in someone elses pond...especially if it is close and not clear cut...
