Amen to this, and I did exactly it last night. Two-man game (hopefully the last one of the year) and the court was stretched pretty good with some backcourt pressure and players already posting in the front-court. Steal in the backcourt leads to two-on-one transition, and as I'm busting up, while trying to keep some idea what's happening with the players all over the court, I clearly see a foul that my partner was straight-lined on, exactly as has been talked about here.

Instinctively I blow it, and there I am at about the 28' line in the backcourt, thinking "this has to look like total crap."

One of the few calls you know you get right and feel bad about all at the same time...
