Andy,

Why do the coaches and players always ask the official that didn't make the call why the other official called it? That's puzzled me for a while now. I had that happen tonight in a game. My partner made a closely guarded call and the coach asked me why it was closely guarded if the player was moving toward the basket. I explained it to him and that was the end of it. In answer to your question, I would support your partner in front of the players. If you have a question about his calls also, then talk to him tactfully at halftime or after the game. The last thing you want is to get into some kind of power struggle with your partner during the game.
