I, myself, have noticed that I have been calling more lane violations than my partners. However, I also believe I am pretty darn lenient as well. I never call a player for going over a line, yet not touching the floor, before the ball hits rim. I have been calling the obvious, i.e., a player is standing on the line after the FT has been administered or the player actually enters the lane and puts a foot down before the ball hits rim. I think that is fair.

Last night, out of peripheral vision, I saw a guy on the lane (who was my partner's responsibility) commit a violation. He didn't call it. It was obvious! Since it was my partner's responsibility, I passed on it. So...the question arises, should I call the violation even though the player in error is my partner's responsibility? This has happened more than once this year, and I have passed on calling it everytime...and, of course, the coach usually notices the violation and rants and raves! What do you guys say?
