Play #4: Travel all day long. A couple of years ago our State Sup of Officials - who was also a long-time college official - went over spins and says in the HS game if the dribbler tries to spin that 9 times out of 10 it's going to be a travel. He's probably right.
Play #5: PC. Does the shooter have to sit on the guy's face before a whistle's blown?
Play #6: PC, good call. Enough contact was inside the torso in order to justify it, unlike play #3
Play #2 - combined with a similar play in the previous video post on this game - may be the most baffling. Two airborne shooters get wiped out by kids under the hoop who don't have LGP and there's not even a thought of a whistle? Some of the others you can see where they might have been missed but those two plays were train wrecks that any one of them could've called and nobody would've complained. That's what makes you wonder whether everyone's head was in it from the start.
