Guess I would let his call go and assume I was wrong (if wasn't performing my own prescribed duties and my eyes happened to be wandering).
JR, this quote came out of the NFHS Preseason Basketball Guide 04-05.

I didn't ask you if you SHOULD be watching it, I asked you what you would do IF you happened to see it while referring.
Clearly, 100% certain, A1's foot is on the line. Your partner puts up both hands.
What do you do?

Let me rearrange and see if you recognize this as an answer:
Guess (if I wasn't performing my own prescribed duties and my eyes happened to be wandering) I would let his call go and assume I was wrong.
If it was my call and my partner was mistakenly calling it a three, guess I would do something to correct him and the scorers. Not sure I would stop the clock but might emphatically show two fingers and run by the table to yell the same to them. Next break, my partner and I will have a little discussion on responsibilities.

Nope, I don't recognize it as an answer, I recognize it as a guess.
And why do you keep saying someone is not doing his job in this sitch? Are you telling me that it is strictly forbidden for 2 officials to both view the same play?
