This is why everyone complained about the officiating at the Olympics, LOL.
The only definite contact seen in this picture is Bowen's forearm on Nowitzki's hand, which is legal contact.
There
could be contact at the hip, and at Nowitzki's shoulder, and Bowen's elbow
might be about to smack into Dirk's head, but this picture doesn't show any of these clearly, nor does it show the severity of the contact. Based solely on this picture, this is not a foul.
