UNC/Butler
6:49 of the first half
C calls a travel from behind the Butler player. Looks as if the ball was knocked loose by a bump from a defender.

Baylor/S. Carolina on TBS
6:49 left in the first half (lol same time as the other game)
Is the contact from behind during the S. Carolina transition worthy of a foul? If so, which official should be responsible?

Don't need video of these plays, just commenting.

South Carolina/Baylor

6:09 first half -- John Gaffney signals two shots on a 1 and 1, stands on the court next to defender. Realizes it is supposed to be 1 and 1, backs out of lane. No one goes to rebound on the release but thankfully the shot is made.

I saw another play Mike Roberts had earlier where it looked like he was about to call an illegal screen on South Carolina but then pointed at the Baylor player.

Not the smoothest first half for this crew.

2:50 first half Baylor/SC. Transition block call.

What did the defender do wrong?

I got all of these, I will post later in the night.

Peace

10:41 second half. Another block call where it didn't look like the defender did much wrong.

Baylor/SC 10:41 2nd half. Block/Charge. Looks like a PC.

1:26 left in 2nd half of Bulter/UNC
Butler player drives from the wing and scores.
Did he dribble after going airborne or keep a foot down?

UCLA/Kentucky
8:46 first half
Alley-oop attempt by UCLA, undercut by UK player. First they line the players up for 2 shots, then go OOB throw-in.

Should this be shooting or not?

Player who was fouled never had the ball. Officials correctly came to their senses. You can't assume an alley-oop.

UCLA/UK, first half, 8:33. UCLA player commits a blatant travel en route to a monster dunk.

My question isn't whether it's a travel, since we would all agree it is. My question is: Would this be considered a "gotcha" travel at this level? I was kind of surprised at the no-call, since this was not a quick one either. More of a slow-developing, easy-to-identify travel.

Just trying to calibrate my own meter ;)

Yup.

He didn't possess the ball but he did get his fingertips to it. Could we say he is trying to tap the ball?

No, I think it was a travel and should be called. But it might be hard to see as you are looking at the contact. Seen too many videos that travels should be called.

Peace

UCLA/UK, 17:50 left. Block/charge no-call.
