Now put yourself as the C on the play. Officiating UNC #2 defending on the drive by Duke #5. Duke #12 with a screen at the elbow on UNC #2 at the same time holding with the left arm UNC #13 on the drive by Duke #5 to the basket.
Right or wrong, the L chose to stay and not rotate. Duke #15 and UNC #3 are on the block and the L chose to stay with them (no fault in that thinking). If the L decides to rotate, it would be late and he would most likely be looking at the drive by Duke#5 and not the hold by Duke #12.
This is a tough play to officiate through the eyes of the crew on the floor but I believe the best look would've been the L if he didn't have the post players in front of him.
