I have to assume that I'm missing something because it's happened twice so far this season, both times when I've been lead right behind the basket, and it's getting called by my partners who are 20 feet away from the play.

Help?
You are correct this is not OB, however, you should not be looking here as lead, so the fact that they are 20 feet away is not really relevant - it would be their call IF they were correct
