Duke/Kansas Block ?

What do you guys have?
Can you make the case that the defender didn’t get his torso square
for “initial” LGP. Then moved slightly after the shooter left his feet
hence the block call. Been asking most of my ref friends and
it’s been unanimous that it should have been a charge.

1) I am a life long KU fan (my beloved mother, Class of 1942).

2) The B1 Established a LGP. Any movement by B1 was within his Cylinder of Verticality. Therefore, a Charge by A1.

Pretty easy charge IMO. I think the calling official leaned block because of the score.

Bang-bang play, but PCF in my mind.

"I think the calling official leaned block because of the score."

I don't follow. What do you mean, AR?

I guess I’m in the minority, but I’m still saying block. I had the defender, specifically his left shoulder, leaning toward and into the ball handler’s path. I think the defender sought out the contact where it occurred.

That said, I haven’t watched the play since I DVR’d it on Sunday night. Maybe I don’t remember it as well as I think I do.

Roger Ayers advanced. I think maybe JD Collins thought it was a block, too. Actually that whole crew advanced, didn’t they?

I'm more concerned with the lack of foul calls on two Kansas OOB plays and the inconsistent enforcement of traveling on 2 similar plays.

Kansas was down at the time. Kansas had been at a foul count disadvantage. Kansas had 2 plays that should have been fouls on Duke that didn't go their way.

Or maybe Roger just missed it.

I think there is merit to the logic behind going with the block at that point of the game IF the play were a "50/50".

This play, even in real time, was not a 50/50, IMHO.

I think the call could have went either way and my first reaction was charge. I have to say it was one of the worst called games I have ever seen. Several no calls and anticipate calls.

Can you truly "miss" a play like this in real time? The way I see it, whatever call you make is going to piss off half the gym no matter what, regardless of right or wrong.

You can slow it down and break it down on film till the cows come home, but the guys on the court don't have that luxury. IMO in this situation you just have to pick one. Elite Eight, final minutes, everything on the line--just pick one and sell it. That's what Roger did here and I don't have a problem with it.

You could definitely convince me it was a charge though.

Right. And that’s why all three officials advanced to the Final Four, when no other regional final crew did so.

Gimme a break, fanboy with 28 posts in four years.
