He clearly signaled 2 before the free throw.

I did not see a clear signal. I saw something that looks like he signaled two shots, but that is not seeing his hand in total. Either way, he clearly did not ask for sure and the calling official did not make sure he had the right situation. This is certainly what happens when you do not communicate properly or observe.

Thanks, Rut. Definitely an ouch moment for crew. That "2 shots" signal is clear as L backs out of the lane.

And you're right about Bardo. He was really pretty on it, as was the other announcer who said it would be a 1-and-1 right after the call.

I remember Collins mouthing "But we got the rebound!" which I thought was bogus at the time, but turns out to be true in the most technical of senses, though it was still an actionless rebounding scenario.

By the way, my "commoners" comment was about the officemates. I was their interpreter today.
