He later did just what he said he was going to do, clearly the star fouled the girl going to the basket, he gives it to her team mate, it was the team mates 4th foul.
Thoughts?

I am all for trying to keep the best players in the game ---- when possible. But if they are fouling you have to call it. If we don't call it, or call it on another player our credibility as a crew goes way down.
Don't make our job more complicated by adding "philosophies" into the game... our job is to call fouls and violations.
