I'm not an assignor and I don't make the big bucks to call the big games, so my opinion really doesn't count for much.

This is the C's primary and he should be the one making the call. I agree with others, even a slight tap on the shooters elbow is a foul that should be called every time. However, I don't see any contact on this play, nor does the shooter react like he was touched. Finally, on a play like this, where both the C and T have passed, I am not coming to call a foul on this play from the L. There is no way the L can be 100% confident there was a missed call here. He is reaching and guessing, and most likely got the call wrong.
