For some strange girl-jv-player-brain-fart reason, dribbler picks up her dribble, starts dribbling again, then gets all flustered. Partner is oblivious. I blow my whistle from 70 feet away. Partner was just distracted, looking at the clock, whatever. He had no reason to believe this player would screw things up.
It had to be called.

Why? Backcourt dribbler, no pressure. Happens all the time, to be honest, and it's easy to explain to the coach if necessary. I don't see this as a "have-to-get" call.
