Our job is to call the obvious. It was clear that once the ball was touched the shooter gave up on the shot and dropped the ball. The defender did not at all knock the ball out of his hand. I think that was a great call. I also did not have a problem with the officials getting together and talking about the call either. I do not agree that this happens a lot. Usually players either finish the shot or they get the ball knocked out of their hand and there should be nothing called.

Peace
