The first time I saw it, I had a PC. The second time, I had a PC. The third time, I had a PC. Yeah, the defender leans a little to brace for contact, but she doesn't create any contact that wasn't happening anyway.

Now, after seeing it in slow motion a few times, I changed my mind. The defender's lean creates contact. Had she remained vertical, the shooter would have landed short of contact, IMO.

I'd like to think I would got it right on the court, but I don't know.

I don't give a rats a$$ what Burke thinks, though.

Altitude? In Denver? Pshaw!
