I find some "newer" officials (especially the less trained at the wreck level) spot the ball "wherever they feel comfortable" regardless of where it should be.

As was stated, I might call him over for a brief conversation and let him know where it should really go. However, if they don't want to change, I wouldn't make a spectacle of it on the court. I would later show them on my court/chalkboard the proper placement and explain why.

These types of issues are more important at the higher levels as coaches can be adamant about spot location knowing their set plays coming out of it. JME
