I just don't see this as anywhere near as clear cut as everyone else. His lower body seemed to have a bunch of momentum going forward, he didn't really swing or pull up much except to stop the momentum and *maybe* a little extra. This doesn't cross the threshold into excessive for me, but it's close. It's not the greatest angle - from behind it looks like the legs were swinging forward on the momentum of the shot. If he brought them up more to showboat, then sure, much more understandable call. Even his own coach didn't exactly give a rousing defense.
Of course, CC - feel free to score more next time to not put yourself in that position or stop the other team after the T shots.
