Thought of it, but he didn't. It was a good call, and with his experience, if his assignors really didn't want it called, he wouldn't have b/c of the situation. (End of game, let the players decide, etc.) Plus, you can be sure that the officials talked during the TO's to remind each other of what their responsibilities were and to be sure of any contact before making the call.

I did see a replay of a drive and jump shot of Williams' where they called a foul that shocked me. I saw it twice and the camera angle was pretty good, the guy was standing straight up and set and there was very, very slight contact if any and that was because of Williams' followthrough. Another guy swiped at the ball from the side but missed everything.
I have to agree that I didn't see much of a foul there. My guess is that from the official's angle, he felt that the contact from behind on the shooter's arm was significant. But I agree that it didn't look like much on replay.
