You're getting the hang of this blue font thing, g.

Exactly why they would have gone to the monitor had the shot gone in. The video doesn't lie!

Here's a better-quality video.

On Zoubek's final free throw, watch the Butler player on the far side, closest to the block. He sort of pushes the Duke player out of the way.

Foul? Would you call it?

That ain't a foul at any level. The Dook player was passive and wasn't contesting anything. He was backing off making sure that he couldn't be called for anything. There was NO advantage gained by the contact and you sureasheck couldn't call it rough play.

You don't get to a game like that making foul calls like that. And if you did, you'd never be back.

Not a foul...

I saw that, too, but wouldn't call it for the reasons Jurassic lays out.

Said the Polish referee...

So, to extend your line of thinking, we should dispense with all electronic clocks and let the ref decide the game is over when they feel like the proper number of minutes has passed? or perhaps time the game with a sundial? (except in Oregon and Washington)
