Honestly, I dont see how the T could've marked a 3 point attempt judging by where he is. This is clearly an example of when the L should be cognizant of his partners poor positioning & sneaking a peak at the transitional game tying try.
While I agree with your assessment, please read OP again ... "same kid hits a shot and the C overrules the L during the timeout and calls it a 2". This makes it only worse.

I stand corrected, the L exhibited "a nice piece of officiating" by sneaking a peak. Not much more you do when the R takes over the game... well, except use the phrase that pays, "I'm 100% certain & I accept full responsibility!" If that doesnt work, then it is what it is...

Do to my previous posts. I will remain silent on this one. It speaks for itself.

Don't want to reveal that you agree with the group?

BNR,

Why you got to call me out like that? On my spelling (Due v Do).

Right. The new L - who did right by sneaking a peek since it was in transition - should've come out with conviction when the shot was made and during the time out to say it was a 3. I'll agree, there's no way the new T could've seen anything but there's no way the C could've called it either since he had to be a good 15 feet behind the play.

What's worse is the C's only job on transition plays is to stay with the ball between the arcs. The guy was half-walking, half-jogging from the moment the play started.
