Well, it is obvious that because the defense tipped the ball that as soon as the horn sounded the ball was dead and the basket cannot be awarded unless it went through before the horn sounded (I am assuming that you are indicated the horn sounded first). I would hope that by the time I am doing a state finals game that I would be able to go over to my partner and tell him what I saw and hopefully he would do the right thing. It is his call to change and I would let him know that I was 100% without a doubt sure that it was the defense that tipped the ball. After that it is up to him to do the right thing.
