I agree with Nev's general principle here. Whenever I'm involved in a miscommunication (and whatever mess ensues because if it), I first want to know what I could have done differently to prevent the miscommunication.
There was a play in my first game of the year where I'm at T and my partner has a whistle on a drive to the hole. I hustle down to the baseline to start lining the players up for the free throws. Only my partner waves me off because what she actually called was traveling. But she's not very tall, was screened by a group of players who were fairly tall, and I only inferred a foul because "it must be; what else would it be?" Whoops.
Perhaps your partner here believed there was a TO call because...well, what else could it be?
Which does not explain the brain fart that came next with him reporting "your TO," especially after you made your report.
