I guess I should have also mentioned that I know that would NEVER be called in that situation, but hey I was depressed, sue me

I will also say that after watching the replay from the normal camera angle it is not much of a push off. The replay that I was remembering from last night looked a lot worse. But then again, maybe that was just because I had my Duke colored glasses on.

I'm a Duke fan, listened to the game on XM but watched the highlights.

No pushoff, may have appeared that way but 15 (Henderson) switched and the screener for Wake just slipped right to the basket. It was such a bad defensive play, you figured there HAD to be a push off. Just another example that you need to anticipate the play, not the call.

For the record, I don't like it one bit, but I don't see how you come out of it without a travel call. And two of them had it, C and new T. It looked like T gave the call, and C mimicked, as there was a double whistle. Again, good example of good officiating in a critical spot - a slight hesitation from C, probably some eye contact with T, and the right call in a tight spot.

Still stinks though
