If I'm the Lead, I'm not comig to help with this play. The Trail is going to have to live and die with his decision.

He might have been looking there to help chop the clock. I agree with you about not having all the information.
I had a play earlier in the year where on a rebound a offensive player saved a ball and threw it near the BC. I was the lead and nothing was called. I had no idea if it was touched or controlled, but I could tell by the reaction that something had happened. I left it alone because I had nothing to give but that a player threw the ball near the BC. It probably was a BC violation, but I was watching rebounding and making sure the player saving the ball was not fouled or continuous contact after save.
Peace
