I think the better question that no one is asking is why is the Trail looking at something in front of the C?

Does the T not trust his partner, the C, to do his job and get the call right?

Because it appears that you may have some hearing issues.

I thought of that too, but figured that the play could have been in transition.

I would agree with you that transition is the only time that they should be looking at the same area of the court. If it was transition, I'm fine with either of them getting it. In transition, I just want the correct call made.
