If 32 black made contact I have a foul on 32 black score the bucket and shoot one free throw. If not I have a charge on white.

You're really going out on a limb there.

Looks like a PC to me.

Contact does not mean foul. Even if there's contact there, it looks pretty slight to me. I'm going straight to the charge.

What I have is no preliminary signal by the official.....sad.

Hard to tell for sure what they were calling from this angle, but the secondary defender definitely had LGP. However, it looks like there may not have been much contact by the shooter (can’t tell for sure). In that case I have a no-call. If there was significant contact, then I have a PC. Although, they may have called it on black 32.
But from what I can tell, it looks like a no-call to me.

Check out the midget on the end of the bench

Anderson, SC isn't that the home of Radio?

Almost forgot, charge

Thanks to funny.

Definitely not a block.

PC or no-call, with an obvious lean to a PC.

Edit: @ midget.

What about the guy running down along the fans giving everyone five? Do you have a little bit of taunting there?

[ma_ref]

Without having a closer look at the contact, looks like PC to me...

[Spence]

Would anyone call a T on the player in white who bends down and appears to be talking smack to the defender?

Could you have both?

For newer officials...

This is a good play to practice your mechanics on.
A) You have contact by 32 Black (the smaller 1st defender)
B) You have a block by 30 Black
C) You have a player control foul on 23? White

If you had this YouTube moment, how would you want your mechanics to be?

Please, do a better job than this official did of communicating what you have. Think it through all the way, and practice it in a big enough space.

I'm a big proponent of newer officials working their mechanics in the mirror, but also of working through the mechanics of certain plays in the mirror. This is a good one, because there are a few different scenarios to practice. Give it a try.

I believe he called a block on 30 because at the very end (last few frames) he starts to put his hands up in closed fists to emphasize the blocking foul. Of course, this is just a guess.
