Right. We know that. Yet the player who was whistled for the foul reacted incredulously and was still befuddled all the way back to the bench.

2:32 left in first half
Trail whistles a block on a fast break while lead lets the contact go as another player swats the shot away.

2:32 to go in first half of Oregon game. Foul on Oregon play. Phantom foul and T appears to point at RA.

[Nevadaref]

Whether it is a foul or not shouldn't be the question.
I think that it is more important to note that the primary official had this play covered and the determination should have been left up to him. The Lead had an excellent angle to see the space/contact between the players. The Trail had a closed-look.
I would be ticked if a partner whistled this after I made a no-whistle decision.

Agree. Incidental contact (if any) at best.

But I thought he was pointing to indicate the defender in question, just so everyone knew the monster blocked shot wasn't the foul. And pointing adamantly, for the sake of salesmanship, for taking the thunder out of the gym.

OOB off Gonzaga? Yup.
1:45/23 on clocks? Yup.

OK, guys we're good ... 3-4 minutes later.

FYI, the replay system used is NOT the same video feed that is used by CBS. From my experience, DVSports has their own replay producer and the while the camera angles might be the same used by CBS, the speed of which the video feed is recalled on the monitor to the officials on the floor, is extremely slow. The game and shotclock in-lays are not shown on some of the replays. The DVSport producers will look what CBS is showing and then feed that video to the officials on the floor.

Great example of a touch foul hurting the team with the ball.
That level of contact wasn't a foul all game.

I saw this as a "take foul." Defender placed his two-hands in front of the offensive player; automatic foul no matter the level of contact.

Why does Ted Valentine not start his PTS pack when he administers a throw-in?

[Fuelrider]

2nd half 11:30 I believe. No call when Carolina offensive player threw his shoulder into the Oregon defender, then turns into jump ball.

[Fuelrider]

5:38 2nd half lead calls tripping. On Oregon defense.

[Fuelrider]

1:32 2nd half foul called on brooks looked like a jump ball.

If this was the play that gave Brooks his 5th foul, it looked like an awful call. Outstanding defense that was penalized.

If this was against Brooks, it was an excellent call.

Well that is often the standard. Everyone does not share this philosophy that you seem to.
