Would you "Overrule"?
LEAD calls a Basket Interference on Team A on a made basket after the ball bounces off the rim and enters the basket. Center Official has nothing.....Offense did not touch the ball while it was in the cylinder on the made basket...but it was fairly close.
We often hear that officials should "Live and Die" by their calls.....But do you agree with this philosophy in this situation, thinking maybe Lead saw something, or do you rectify? This happened in the 1st Quarter (not that that really matters)...but Team A ended up losing by two. |

Just because one official has nothing, that does not mean that they saw what the other official had. I would let them stay with their call as a general rule. It would have to be egregious for me to even give information at all.

Since you put it in quotes, hopefully that means you know that you can't overrule your partner, no matter how wrong the call. If you feel it absolutely necessary, you can confer with your partner and give him the opportunity to change his own call. I agree with Rut in this particular case. The error would have to be really blatant before I would inject myself here.

If the Lead wants to make this call, because he thinks he's saving the crew from a huge miss, then he has to live with it if he's wrong. When he blew the play dead, the C and T have a chance to say "{Lead}, I saw it clear view of the play and there was no touch." Let the L then live and die with changing his call or not.
