Interesting.
But what if C decided to pass on marginal contact and let the game to into another period? The L would have been putting the entire crew into a horrible position and the integrity of the crew has diminished. This is probably not a 2-whistle play unless the shooter absolutely gets crushed and C has a brain freeze, then that would need to become a crew call.

TRUST YOUR PARTNERS........especially in a game of this magnitude. You would like to think that each official has gotten there by their merits.

I agree...there were two officials in better position to get that. No way the lead, from the endline, should be calling that type of foul at the division line.

Agreed again and not trying to pile on, it may have been a good call, but certainly not by new lead.
