Of course, there are different schools of thought on calling the "off-ball" foul. I probably would've tried to talk them "apart" first, and then I would've blown the Fox if they didn't respond to my "advice".
But, I guarantee, nobody would have seen or heard me "ranting and raving" at any partner on the floor.

I didn't include this in the story, but I already had been doing this all game. And if he was not mugging him the way he was, it might have not been such an easy call. And basically B was preventing A from recieving a pass all together. Believe me, I was not very quick on the whistle. I had been warning all game about the post play. I was just taken back by the response of my partner more than anything. No matter what I called, he should not have been saying anything to me at that point. He did all of this with the players hearing him and the coaches. Kind of like showing me up. I could have been an a$$ and told him or said, "these teams are in my conferences not from the city," but I choose not to.
Peace
