A1 drives from the three point line to just outside the lane and B1 "flops" after minimal contact and A1 misses the shot. I'm the lead on the opposite side. The trail calls nothing. (Has been doing that most of the game so far).
As far as primary area of coverage it is the trail's call.
I'm thinking I should have made a call there:
(A) Block on the defense. 2 shots.
or
By the book:
(B) Technical foul on B1.
What do you think?
Also, how do you handle when you are working with a "weaker" official.

If I see a "probably foul" in my partner's primary area (but only a little ways out of my primary area), I don't call it. He probably has his reasons (right or wrong) for passing on it.
If I happen to see a train wreck in my partner's area (but only a little ways out of my primary area) and he sucks on his whistle, I'm making that call.
If he has a either a probably foul or a train wreck that is WAY out of my primary area, I highly doubt if I'll see it (why am I looking there?).
These situations are all a part of my standard pregame.
