The second contact occurs opposite side of paint from C. Nothing else happening for the L. I think it was a good job from both of them. C blew and held and saw L wasnt selling so he went with it. Around here, we say blow and hold from the outside simply because we know how hard it is for the lead to lay off when someone is falling at his feet. If leads not selling then C is free to take off with it. Which he did and i agree with call.

I dont know if anyone else notices this but when i see plays live, like this,fouls seems pretty clear. Slo mo im looking at it and saying what contact made defender go back like that. Slo mo can play tricks...i think...

Get the first Charge and you won't have to worry about the game becoming physical. And don't hand me this crap that if you call the first one you won't be calling games at this level.

I'm not handing anything to you. Watch basketball. That's not enough for a foul...at this level...high school level...maybe a foul in grade school. Did these fellows call it? Of course u know better.?

And I'm sure now you are going to tell everyone about your experience ....and if anyone disagrees with you they simply don't understand...

There were 3 possible fouls on the play....
1. The initial bump at the top near the FT line. If called, it would be a charge.
2. The defender's left arm far from vertical across the shooters right arm (illegal use of hands).
3. Then the torso contact at the end (a charge).

#1 just isn't getting called. There just isn't enough there.

I think it's surprising in a good way they got this offensive foul at all -- but it's a good reminder that the C sometimes has the best look through the players.

Agree, was just noting that IF there were to be a foul there, it would have been a charge. I'd pass on that too.

I might however, be more inclined to get the defensive hit on the arm before the charge.

I liked the call....The official let em play through the 1st one but the 2nd one was enough to go the other way.
