If I am lead on this play. I very STRONGLY tell the guy waving his arms to stop. If he ignores me, I definitely
have a disconcertion.
When howler monkey goes nuts, at least I can say the player was warned and chose to ignore it.:P
I might even get the ball back from the shooter and make a general announcement to the lane to knock it off.
Whether the waving cause the miss is debateable because of the pressure situation anyway.
Sorry that your partner was a jerk. You would hope that officials working playoffs would have respect (and confidence) for each others abilitites and support decisions made.
Your partner sounds like someone I wouldn't want to work with in a close game because it doesn't appear that he can make a tough call when needs be.
Stick by your guns, don't let his negative comments to others get you down.
