Hmm, don't think you're quite right on that one. Observe the point of contact:





The guy basically takes a knee to the face, which is why he's down for the count after the dunk.

Full speed, I think the defender is late.

So I have no problem with a no-call - seems cruel on this specific play for the guy to get plowed in the face, get dunked on, AND take the foul
