The home team had the ball in their backcourt with less than a minute on the clock and a 5 point lead. The visiting coach was yelling to his players to foul. The visiting player fouled and I called an intentional foul. The foul was not soft nor was it a hard foul. As I went to report the foul the vetern official said, "don't call an intentional." I said, "the coach yelled foul and I am going by the book." The coach did not have a problem with my call.

After the game, the vetern official told me I needed to use better judgement and not call an intentional in this case, and that I would not be a good official unless I understand the game better. This situation did not warrent an intentional. My reply was: I went by the book.

Did I make the right call?
