Yes, that was my initial beef. The conversation developed to where I was talking about other times the Lead would mirror signals.

Yes, I did survive OK. As the Trail, I was observing my PCA when players put up three-point try's in his (Lead) PCA. He would put his three fingers up, but take it down once the three either missed or went through. I had to pay quick attention to his sign before he put it down, and signal accordingly. As the trail, being the only one signalling to the table "made three-point try" it certainly looked bad. I could have had a coach ask me "how are you signalling a made three-pointer from across the court??" but thankfully I did not. If a three-point try in his (Lead) area is good, we should both be signalling, not just me (Trail).

No, he was saying "they" told him to put up the initial three-point try signal (hand extended at head level, three fingers out) but not signal made three-point try (both arms extended straight up, palms facing).

Yep, I understand now.
