How do you think I should handle that if it happens again?"

I wouldn't touch the subject of questioning a partner's judgement to my assignor. If asked, I may only say "he had a couple of judgement calls that were tough and I'm not sure they were as consistent as I would have liked"....

If you really feel strongly about not working w/ that partner again, simply tell your assignor.
Tell me of an assignor anywhere that wouldnt ask "Why not?" when told that you didnt want to work w/ someone you just did a game with...

The fouls you mentioned in the sich?- no reason to bring those up. But the pre game or in this case pre 2nd half converse w/partner should have put you both on the same page. I WOULD tell the assignor that he "threw you under the bus" and why. As you know, your only friend out there is your pard, but I guess not that night...
