If I were the WNBA Commissioner I would fine the losing coach for her conduct toward the coach after the game. Coaches should always pay a price for taking a cheap shot at the officials for conduct on the court immediately after the game. The game official did a great job of ignoring her as he left the court.

I agree there are no good angles from the camera's. I was surprised, as I watched the game live, that the call was made from C's position across the court. I would think that the better angle from where contact supposedly happened on the left shoulder would come from in front of the play. It looked as if the C was right in line with the offensive player and was blocked out, therefore having to react to the body language of the shooter for the foul call. Maybe the Trail should have been closer to the play? It just seemed a reach from the C's position for this kind of contact. But all of this is coming from poor camera angles.
