You must be talking about a different play than the rest of us then, as the KU player clearly gets knocked down and ends up sliding on the court.

I was about to say that. No way you should let a defender (no matter how long he'd been a defender) hip check a shooter to the floor (even an off-balance shooter) on this play.
The idea that you shouldn't call this because a no-call sends it into overtime is just stupid.
Thinking it's probably a foul but wanting to no-call it because you'll get less grief is just cowardly.

The KU player goes to the floor not because of a foul, but because he's trying to launch a desperation shot....

That's not how the official on the floor saw it; nor is it how I saw it. Apparently, I'm not the only one here who saw it my way. Can you say the same thing?

Are you serious? The hip check contact by the UCLA player - in your opinion - had no effect on the KU player? The KU player simply fell to the ground all by hisownself??

WOW!

Hey, I was just following instructions. Have you changed your mind so quickly?

Be careful, you're starting to sound like someone I know.

Heh, I wondered if that would catch your attention.

Yeah, that's what the Vast Rightwing Conspiracy told me when I crossed over, and I've yet to see so much as a form letter to welcome me.
