If you feel the contact was before that, then you do not have a counted basket. I can see both sides but understand that the official is standing and seeing the left arm as well that we do not see. I would like to ask him what he had ultimately, which is not likely going to happen.

Agree on both. I was 50/50 on the second one when I saw it but I don't think he had a foul until later in the sequence when the defender came down on top of the shooter. It wouldn't be popular but I am okay with counting the basket.
