I agree that 2-person mechanics, each official always has 2 boundary lines. But if you guys do it differently for backcourt, so be it. From your OP, if you knew beyond doubt the direction you would have signaled it immediately, I'm assuming. Since you hesitated and looked to your partner for help, you have limited yourself to 2 options. 1) He signals the direction and you move on, or 2) he signals to you that he's not sure, and at that point you would signal jump ball and go AP. Once you look to your partner for help, I think it's in your best interest to NOT make the call because of the hesitation. Going AP is not the end of the world. Just tell the one coach that's still upset that it was one of those bang-bang plays that neither of you saw, and that you're not going to guess. The conversation should end there!

Berkut, dont discount Bob's #2...
I know you were looking away toward partner for help, but the players reactions can speak volumes.

Actually, as trail you have two lines and as lead you have two lines. There shouldn't be a situation where you are actively covering three lines at once. If so, you got problems.

Division line.

Yes, I realize this.
As lead, you have the endline and the sideline closest to you. As trail, you have the division line and the sideline closest to you. (Technically speaking, you have the endline at the other end of the court, but by the time you get down there, for all intents and purposes, you are new lead.) |

Optional Option ???
Quote:
The manual is also poorly written. It describes the new IAABO option, but doesn't bother to explain what to do if you choose not to use the option. Also, the new option doesn't work in transition, or during a press/press break situation.

Or A1 gets trapped in the backcourt in corner by the division line and sideline and then throws a pass all the back to the endline to A2. Appears to me that in both of those situations that the Trail needs to be paying attention to 3 lines.
