Memphis Game
 
Ok, I just saw the replay once and the camera angle was not great. However, A1 was dribbling up court and as he gets near the division line he turns his body, gets both feet in the front court and (it appeared from what I saw), may have dribbled the ball off his foot...ball rebounds into the back court (which suggest that is what indeed happened) and A1 chases down the ball...official calls back court. When I first saw the play I was thinking no back court...now, I think it was.

Since his foot was in the front court, would that be considered having the three points in the front court or does the ball need to touch the floor? In live action, I may have kicked that call...kinda disappointed in myself.
