Is this a reviewable play?

Only reviewable to see if shot was released in time, not for trajectory.

Then it shouldn't matter if it hit the rim first or is a "swish". It would be a violation regardless. That is the reason for my question "why".

I didn't see a ball go over the top of the backboard. If it's not illegal, it's legal.

I still love the radio call, though. Oh, sweet bias!
