That could be possible... sorry for a not-so-good description.

He wanted me to comment on the half so far, so I brought that up. I wouldn't have gone in and ask that without you saying something like that.

Um, isn't that what this forum is for, to ask questions? Not like I was asking you to give me the square root of 428137011412022025.

Which, btw, is 654321795.

You left that part out. To me, you asked him an unsolicited question.

The question to ask that official is would he had disallowed the basket if she somehow had made the shot?

Your question was legitimate. And the answer that you received was also legitimate. The official told you that in his opinion the player wasn't in the act of shooting. In his opinion, the player could have been in the act of passing instead.

Iow, it was a judgment call. And by inferring that he "messed up that call", all that you're doing now is questioning his judgment and saying that your judgment is better.
