Play 3. Close play, but it doesn't look like the defender prevented the release of the shot so probably incorrect. Good sell though.
#1: A1 is still outside the 3-point line when the whistle and fist occur. Just an horrendously handled play all the way around, IMO.

#2: After the call in Play 1, a whistle should definitely have come earlier on this play.

#3: As I said in the original thread, this is the expected call. Corbett is not going to get dinged for that call, I guarantee you. A1 went up to shoot, B1 got hand on the ball, A1 returned to the floor with the ball. If anyone says that technically this was a travel or a fumble per the rule book, I won't dispute you either way. I'm saying what call is expected on this type of play.
