On this one, the play was coming right at Burr on the sideline as new L on the turnover. Higgins was T at the other end on the same sideline. Earl Walton was the C across the court. There's nowayinhell Walton was involved in an OOB call on the far sideline. He shouldn't be part of the conversation imo.

Bottom line is they just missed the call. Contrary to the thinking of fans and talking heads, officials really are human and do recognize they'll screw one up every now and then. Unfortunately the circumstances make this particular call stand out. If it happens at 3:32 of the first half, no one is talking about it.
