A2 attempts a 3 point shot and is hit on the arm by B2. I blow the whistle and black coach goes balistic. He's repeatedly screaming, "You can't make that call from there. That's your partners call."

I hate when that happens in a 2 whistle game. You work hard to stay with the shooter & they get fouled but you're too far away to make the call. It happens...
As Scrapper suggested, try to get towards the circle when the ball swings to the opposite sideline. Give your partner a crack at it first. If they dont call it, start closing down prior to your whistle. It gives the perception that you're right on top of the play.
Forget who's right it's all about what's right!
