As several have pointed out, the correct way in NFHS is that the lead does not mirror the made basket when the trail has it.
I have received sage advice from some excellent officials I know who work both HS and college ball, "work the game that is in the gym that night." In other words, ref an NHFS game like an NFHS game. I love that philosophy and when I work an NFHS game I use HS mechanics and when I work a CC game I use college mechanics. You really can't go wrong that way.
I know that some states come up with some variations on mechanics, but I've never heard of a state that monkeys with the 2-person 3-point mechanics.
Sounds like you were talking to some veterans that need to crack that official's manual for the first time in about a decade.
