This is pretty fascinating. The first video shows what might be a foul, but these types of calls are missed on occasion. The coach flips, gets T'd pretty late. He also could have gotten thrown for continuing to be out of control. The second video shows what I would consider a clear foul. He's not is position, moving towards the shooter, and the shooter goes down hard with the defender ending up where the shooter initiated his shot. It's pretty obvious that even if the ball was touched, he did not have a chance to land. The severity of that play with no whistle, combined with the situation of a close game with less than a minute, does not look good for the crew. IMO, they missed an Oh My God.

Throwing someone after a call was probably missed without a freak out like video #1 doesn't look good. I use T's as a last resort, which is a minority opinion with this crowd. The first one was automatic and could have even been an ejection, but I don't like video 2 at all.

BTW, the facial expression of the C on both of these is poor. Smirking is never professional no mkatter what a coach or player does.
