I agree. Had a funny one last season - JV girls, similar situation, contact was minimal so I let it go & A1 makes an uncontested layup. On the way back up the floor, coach A wants to know why I didn't call the foul after the steal. My reply was, "minimal contact, no real disadvantage; which would you rather have, the foul or the basket". His reply - "Good point, forget I said anything".
