I see this a lot too.

A1 doesn't concentrate on making the layup and is overly concerned about contact from B1. A1 alters his shot, misses badly, looks for the call when there was little to know contact, and we're going the other way.....Meanwhile, we see a very disheartened A1 jogging slowly up the court and a coach yelling, "They're not going to bail you out so you're going to have to make your layups. Don't try to draw a foul."

And that coach just may be me....... (B15U). ARGH!

Gotta love it when shooters become contortionists and disadvantage themselves far worse that any defender could...
