I do. I have no problem with letting something go when the coach yells for it. Right after, I will tell the coach, "I was just about to call that, but you beat me to it. Hopefully, it won't happen again."
They get the message very quickly, and since we miss a few every game, I don't think that one more means the game is now unfair.
In the long run, this tactic is usually more than worth it.

This is just plain wrong.

If you let the coach influence your calls either way then you aint doing your job.
