I think either is ok. But I was talking about the calling official asking for a second opinion. I had this just this season, actually. I was the Lead in transition. Play came straight down the lane and the shooter hit the ground hard. I thought the defender was playing the ball and did NOT bring the shooter to the ground. But as I'm standing there making sure that nothing extra happens after the play, the shooter's team is very vocal about an intentional. So before I went to the table I asked my partner, "Did you have an intentional on that?" He said, "I didn't have anything". (Which, at the time, I thought he meant that he didn't have a foul!! Later, I asked him and he clarified that it was definitely a foul, but he wouldn't have called it intentional.) So I went with a normal 2-shot foul. When the shooter's coach was still upset about it, I said to him "I checked with my partner and he had the same thing, Coach."
Do you think that's a no-no?
