FIBA, right, well -- who can say?

I suppose I was thinking what I would call if I saw this in one of my games, not what FIBA officials should call. I'm not competent to answer the latter question.

We have 13 people who think an elbow to the chops is worth nothing.

Could some of you come out and tell us what we're (actually you're) missing here?

Make it 12. I should have restrained from voting until after this discussion progressed. When I first watched the video, it seemed as though the back of the forearm got the defender moreso than an elbow.

You would make Lester Hayes and Deion Sanders proud.

What would be a common foul that I'm ignoring because the ball is dead due to the traveling violation.

You just saved me typing. How is this not a foul of any degree?

Three periods in a row. You must have this confused with the hockey forum. We discuss basketball here.

Sorry.

That would be a terrible call. Quarter. (Or is it.....Half.)?

Or maybe I'm thinking about the hockey game I'll be watching tonight.

Oh wait, I get it now.

First few viewings it looked like he barely got him with the back of his forearm/defender made a show. Had to watch it a couple dozen times to be convinced the video showed actual contact to the defender.

If there was no contact, I would have passed.
