vet etiquette

[Nevadaref]

I worked with a 20 year vet last weekend in a 2-man game. This guy is very fussy about not calling his area. While I was lead White takes a shot that rebounds high off the rim and over the backboard without touching it. It cleared the board on my side, but probably only passed over the last eight inches or so. The ball came down to the side of the board, but between it and the endline where White obtained the rebound.
My partner did not blow the whistle. My question for all is would you?
