Why wasn't this Trail's call. A layup with four seconds should not be lead's call. Although there are no specific guidelines in the NF Manual ( of course)... If trail cant make a last second call with four seconds on the clock, and the lead thinks it is his call... Oh my!
This is where a good pregame comes into play, and where once again the NBA has done a better job outlining duties. In the NBA( Two man mechanics) if there is 2.9 or less, Lead has front court shots, and Trail has shots from backcourt. This is a great division of responsibility and works real well.

Kelvin,are you reading this right?The old trail becomes the new lead when the ball got hustled the other way in this sitch,after the score with 4 seconds to go on the other end. The lead is right on the play-it's coming at him and he's right there.It always the lead's call on a layup like this,unless he gets straight lined and needs help from his partner.The only possible thing that the trail could add to this play would be his opinion as to whether the shot was in the air when the horn sounded,in case the ball hadda gone in.
