Let me put it this way. The defenders did not cause any contact and they were backing up. So in other words, they were just standing there. The shooter was trying to split two defenders and threw up a prayer to have a chance to win the game. I would not be calling a foul on that kind of contact at any point in the game let alone an end of the game situation.

I do not care how many points he had. I bet he did not take any shots like the one in the video that is referenced here.
