That's the primary officiating error: it led to more trouble later. "Tweet! Pass the ball back, we're shooting just one here, Joe!"
If you're that worried about the fragile shooter, you can boost his or her ego by adding, "the shot was good!"

I totally agree. I'm blowing my whistle as soon as I see/hear my partner give the wrong information. If the shooter or coach gets pissed, who cares.
