Your area.
Not trying to be funny, but what were you doing looking at something up top? If you are talking about calling something that is solely in your partners area and it is a call on the ball, you probably should have passed on it. If you are looking up there, what are you missing? I am in the minority on this it appears, but I do not feel that you should be calling things in others areas as a habit. Of course if it is a screen or something off ball, that is more acceptable, but it better not happen much more than once, because then you are not trusting your partner.
I did a 3 person (and there is more dual coverage area) in a camp a few years and I was the T and my partner made a call as the L right in front of me. He called something that I had a clear look at and I passed on it because it was no or very little contact. All the dribbler did was make a spin while the defender basically wiffed at an attempt at the ball. Now, I understand calling things that are obvious, but if you make a habit of calling things that are not in your area, then what is going on in yours?" It might be a little more important for you to catch what is right in front of you instead of going fishing across the court.
