Varsity part of night.I'm trail in front of blue bench followinf blue fast break. Player goes up for layup, gets undercut slightly and goes down hard. No tweet from lead.I swallow whistle, let me make excuse. Earlier in Frosh game , similar play and I do make the call from trail. I get the hairy eyeball from partner who passed. I only make this one if I am "110" per cent sure. Partner is a notorious rim watcher, and I think this was what happened in these two cases. I think he gave up on the shooter once the layup was released. Back to Varsity sitch, I catch holy heck from Blue bench for not making the call from trail. I know I avoided the "hairy eyeball"from partner again, but I know I should have called the foul. Should you say the heck with stepping on toes, avoid pi$$ing off partner, or do what you should for the game's benefit? I know the right answer, but in the fraction of time it takes to process this during play, I failed.
