Huh? What in the heck are you talking about? Bailing out? What does that mean?

If anything they shooter was out of control and tried to just throw up a shot. The defenders did nothing wrong but standing there and backing away. That does not mean you have fouled anyone.

Peace

Defender was never 'just standing'. Please tell me where in the clip you see the defender just standing there. He was at the side of the offense player until the last second as the UAB player goes up and jumps in front of him. I guess maybe he did a good job of standin' while he was movin'.

BTW, the out of control shooter ended up with 27 or 28 points. Looked like a decent shot from a good shooter with almost enough time to give opportunity for rebound basket.

Guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.

Let me put it this way. The defenders did not cause any contact and they were backing up. So in other words, they were just standing there. The shooter was trying to split two defenders and threw up a prayer to have a chance to win the game. I would not be calling a foul on that kind of contact at any point in the game let alone an end of the game situation.

I do not care how many points he had. I bet he did not take any shots like the one in the video that is referenced here.
