I agree Camron. Early this year I was working with a 2nd year official and this happened. Ball deep in his corner (on bench side) so I moved my eyes to the lane. Shot goes up and in, I glance to him and don't see anything so I head down the court. A couple trips later the coach says he is missing a point on the scoreboard.
So I ask the kid at half why he didn't signal the make (I guess he signaled the try but I didn't see it)...he said the book says he wasn't supposed to. Needless to say I won a coke but I wonder why this assumption is going around.
