So with the same angle you have contact by B24, but can't tell if W24 pushed or punched.

OoooKaaaaayyy?? What is your point?

Without going back and looking it looked like the official on the other side of the court would have had a better angle of the push off or punch.

OK?

If the reaction is non-basketball in nature, then I don't care what happened first.

Ok?

Well glad you got that off your chest.
