As many of you probably assumed or figured out, I'm the L in this video. I suspected the ball went in from the reaction of the crowd, the sound of the net, the movement of the net. But I couldn't be positive because my "focus" was on the big man. When my C and T started running the other way as if the ball had not entered the basket, I figured they had a much better view and I trusted that the ball had not gone in. The coach asked me if we were going to count that as a "3". He did not ask me if he ball went in. I told him "Give us one sec coach, I had a blocked view coach, but we will figure it out." whistle, foul, we start to talk. I approach the C and he says to me, "I don't know if it went in." I say, okay let me check with the (old) T. The T says to me, "I think it went in." I say okay, you're the only one who thinks anything, so let's go with that. He went to the scorer's table to count the basket and that's when the C started his whole display about how the ball didn't go in. At this point, I'm on the sideline thinking "My partner just left us no recourse." He waived off the basket that he wasn't sure went in or didn't. It was frustrating.

I'm OK with what you did here based upon what you knew at the time. Did the C "Big Time" you guys a bit? I noticed he is wearing college stripes while you two are not. I still would like to know what he saw as a foul also.

Good for you and good for you on putting this out here. It helps us all get better. Maybe even Brad will get his vision checked because of it.

I thought it was obvious when watching real-time the first time, more obvious after reviewing, and still obvious after seeing the initial freeze-frame. Glad that Toren found some better photos so that y'all could catch up  Toren — don't worry about the guy big-timing you. You did fine with the knowledge you had and the bad situation he put you in. Just learn from the experience!

 Toren, I think in this situation we should send players to their benches & all 3 get together instead of two seperate conferences. The R would've said he "thought" it went in, the C would've said he didnt know & you would have the deciding vote, although it was the Rs ultimate decision.
