Why? The bottom line is that it's always your judgement whether the player started a shooting motion or a passing motion. Make up your mind which it is and call the appropriate foul. And don't over-think the play. You get enough people second-guessing you without doing the same thing to yourself. [/B]
I didn't over-think the play. When he made a perfectly good pass, I decided he was not getting FT's as a result of his pass.

[/B][/QUOTE]That was my point. Just make up your mind as to whether it's a pass or a shot, and then make your call. No need for one of those great philosophical discussions like "what came first, the chicken or the egg?".
