Trail official calls backcourt. I thought he didn't see the tip, but when I used the unofficial tip mechanic to avoid going over to the trail official and telling him it was tipped, he acknowledged the tip but did not change the call, which he sold. At the half I asked and he said team control was not lost so this is over and back.
What would you have done different? What if I had approached him right after the call and he told me this?
Should I have approached him and tried to get the call right?

You should have gone to him, not visualize some signal for everyone to see.

When I went over to tell him the ball was tipped thinking he missed the signal, his reply was "Team control was not lost. Do not question me about rules during the game." Then during the next time out he came up to me and said "What the f*** was that? You made us look terrible by questioning a rule."
I was at a loss for words after that comment.
