I had a very senior official tell me one time "be right but don't be dead right!" Dead reight is calling the foul and the basket interference. But remember advantage/disadvantage the Tower principle... the bottom line is the right thing is to call the foul and let the basket interference go. The offensive player pushed causing a disadvantage forcing the basket interference. The best officials want to be right but not dead right. I am still learning that prinicple every game even after 25 years of officiating.
