I never blow my whistle or say anything but I give him a point to the baseline to help him in the direction the ball should be going. He then points the other direction. Crowd grumbles a little bit. He then blows his whistle and comes over to me saying "I didn't get a good look, what did you have." I let him know and he mad the right call and switched the direction.
My question is, should I have been vocal and came running in? should I not have pointed? Should I have just imediatly met with him to discuss it?

How it's usually gone for me, is if I don't know, and it's in one of those "trouble spots", I'll look to my partner, and he'll either point, or start walking the other way.
If he doesn't know, he'll go thumbs up, indicating an AP throw in. Pregame this from now on. The only time I'll get together with my partner on an OOB call is if I have definite knowledge that my partner made the wrong call.
