Play #3: Paul was not vertical and taps elbow. And it is clear this was a foul by how badly the result of the shot. Westbrook basically air balled the shot.

Agree on #1 and #3.

#2, it looks like a foul to me, but it was close. I don't think he contacted the part of the hand that was touching the ball. Looked like he got a lot more of the wrist than the hand that was on the ball.
