I dont think anyone is accusing officials of be on way or the other, but it is obvious that the no call we an easy out so none of the officials would have to explain it to the Duke coach. From looking at the play from above, the BC player was clearly knocked down. That play would have easily put the game in overtime and a possible Duke loss. I would have loved to been a fly on the wall in the post game for the officials.
It is a call that has to be made. It was a 3 point lead, not 2. He missed the attempt so, even if they call the foul BC has to make 2 free throws and are still down one and have to foul. Would it have gone to OT, maybe maybe not. IMO Duke prob. goes to the other end and hit 2 free throws to push it back to a 3 point lead. Anyway you slice it that call would not have hurt Duke. It has to be made.
