From most angles, it looks like GT. However, from the view through the glass, I think it is pretty clear that it is still going up. And that is about as good of a view as you could wish for. It has several very close reference points at it was continuing to rise relative to all of them both before and after the block.

#1: We don't officiate from behind the backboard

#2: That angle has a distorted view so I'm not trusting anything I see from that camera shot.

But I don't see why we have a thread for this. It was a judgment call by an official about 20ft away and 5ft below the ball. To me it's one of the hardest calls to make accurately. There is nothing anybody is going to post in this thread that will say what the official could have or should have done differently.

The question was whether the ball was going up or not. If it is still going up, it doesn't really matter where we officiate from. That just means we don't have the best view of the play to get it right. That ball was still going up. ICC.

From the view of that camera, it would appear to be going down just before it really reached its peak as the camera was aimed downward. Any d\distortion it may have had would have would only make it appear to not be GT. It wouldn't make it appear to GT when it wan't..
