Not yet...I'll probably have some plays from the VCU vs. Kansas game up later tonight and the UK vs. UNC in the early morning. I do know what play you're talking about (UNC 3 at the top of the key when they went down four points).

That's the one. Then they HAD to foul and it was game over.

I got it DVR'ed but you'll have to come over to see it.

Can you tell me where I can find the clause stating that there cannot be illegal contact even though a player "flops?"

I only use the term "flop" when the contact by the player in motion is not illegal. APG understands me. We have bonded over these videos.

The accepted definition of a "flop" is faking contact when there is very minimal or no contact.

Watch out, you'll be told you don't have a sense of humor very shortly.

About an hour away. Shoot down US 13 toward Fayetteville, turn left on James Dail Road just before you get to I-95, take the next left, and turn right at the stop sign. Carolina mailbox...can't miss it!

There is no such statement. There was also no contact, just the defender extending his forearms toward Barnes cut and then flopping backwards.

The play in question.

Haha...you're right. The play in question though, the player embellished contact that in of itself was not illegal and the official bought it. Not the first time in history, won't be the last.
