Fat chance. Although I do see them counting it all the time, so they're not just ignoring it. When were you looking for the call? Not on that last possession, right?
Both on Prince. The first was with just over two minutes left and the Sixers down by four. Prince missed and Okur missed the putback before McKie got the rebound, so no harm done on that one. The second was Prince's bucket that put the Pistons up two before Snow's three gave Philly it's only lead.

Also, if the Sixers had a timeout left, or if Iverson would've made that 70-foot heave, DC's basket interference would've been the smartest play ever. If he doesn't touch it, it still goes in but probably 0.3-0.7 seconds later. He saved them a few ticks by touching that ball. Good heads-up play DC!
