Lead call over the back foul(pushing)

[beachbum]

I'm a second year guy, so help me out here.

In two man, I'm told to watch my primary area and in the T, that does not include the paint. So is an official considered ball watching in they are calling over the back in the paint, when the play is at the basket?

So if all 10 players go to the paint, you are not calling anything that you obviously see?

The primary are during a rebound is slightly different from the primary area during and offensive play.

Look at the players on your side of the basket and up the middle of the lane.

I like when C can get the pushes on rebounds. I go over that in my pregame with whoever I am working with. And with my playoff crew we seldom have a push on a rebound called by the lead. That being said, I don't think it is wrong for lead to call it. If C passes or misses and it needs to be called then by all means go a head lead and call it.
One example that I really see is a rebound going the the short corner on leads side. This probably would be seen best by lead. (Unless Trail closes down).

Don't calling a rebound foul if you're straight-lined and that applies to L, C, and T.

Contact on the head or arms, that's a different story.

This misconseption may stem from the T not wanting to get beat down the court and does not close in for the rebounding action. I probably wouldn't want my partner callin in the key from the 28' mark either. Up here they are wanting all officials to "stay home" and help with the rebounding. I'm sure it is the same elsewhere. If the T closes down and the C also they both should have a good angle an the painted area. No matter where you are, move to improve.
