Yup, I did it just as you described yes on 1 & 3, no on 2.
Partners took the info & went held ball on both with no hesitation or "are you sure."

It's obvious that we are in the same area
They just dont hire 3 individuals out here, they hire a crew of 3.
I'm guessing our non-helpers would rather throw it in their partners face after the game as opposed to getting it right during the game... even in the play-offs

Haha, that's funny cause I edited my answer. As the L, that's one hell of a long way to look to know with clarity that you had it right. That's why I'm staying away.

Frankly, that's a harsh judgment that's not warranted.

You seem to assume that everyone who is not going to throw his partner under the bus in a situation where he was NOT the primary and partner was, is looking to throw it in partners face.

In all 3 cases, why is your "great look" better than his? (Heck ... in number 3, why in the world do YOU have a great look and what were the other 7 players doing who WERE your responsibility at this moment --- you should have NO look on this play, as in - you shouldn't be looking at it!)

If you are working in a playoff game, surely your partner has earned the right to make calls in his area. If you are THAT much better that your looks from an inferior position should trump his looks from a superior position ... why is this guy on the court in a playoff game???!!!
