Uconn vs Syracuse

[NewNCref]

Today is Friday the 13th, and Sunday is the Ides of March, is this like a fanboy full moon? Does it cause normal people to turn into fanboys?

As for my comments:

Didn't see it, but just because the defender is knocked down while setting a screen DOES NOT make it a foul. If he played through the defender, then maybe. But just because the screener fell (possibly hard) does not make it a foul

Lowering of the shoulder is nowhere illegal. Check the book.

The time-out, I think was not called by Thabeet,but rather by his teammates, and therefore he was granted the timeout before he rolled over. Maybe not, but it's what it looked like to me.

No way this was a foul. The contact was not from behind, it was from the side while both were executing legal moving screens.
