Brad,
I don't think the call was that easy.
I think there is a
judgement of control issue that comes into play.
A1 was shooting and B1 got a hand on the ball.
Now, we judge:
Did B1 stop the release? Did A1 take the ball back from his original presentation?
In one case we have the held ball.
In the other case we wait for the rest of the play.
