OZ ref-
i disagree that by saying, " ask my partner why he did or didnt call it" is not like hangin ur partner out to dry. Its about your partner on whether or not he decides to make a call, are u telling me you would explain something halfway across the court OUT of your PRIMARY area to the coach? if my partner decides on a no call, then thast up to him to explain that to the coach, if he choses. i wont explain for a call i didnt make, because i dont know the reasoning behind of why the call was made in the first place? my response as a coach to u would be, if you saw it, then what did u miss in your area? The court is divided among the officials for a reason, to assign responsibility to ones area, in my opinion otherwise, there would be no off ball fouls or things of that nature because the officials wouldnt know whether to watch the ball or become the off ball official. but i will agree with u that everythign on the court is our responsibility. but there is a such thing as YOUR call and HIS call. What about the primary lines to the court to whose responsibility it is to call the ball out of bounds or not? would u blow your whistle as the trail if the ball went out in the front court on the baseline? the thing is sometimes, its just best to swallow the whistle, for your sake and in that sense not make a fool of the crew.
