Wrong. There is a specific rule in basketball that will NOT allow one official to OVERULE another official. Ever! You can offer information or your opinion to another official, but it is completely up to the calling official as to whether or not he wants to change a call.
NFHS Rule 2-6-
"No official has the authority to set aside or question decisions made by the other official(s) within the limits of their respective outlined duties". NCAA rules use similar language.
No overuling in basketball below the NBA level! And I don't have a clue whether they allow overuling at the NBA level either.
