Arizona v. California

[twocentsworth]

officials can use the courtside monitor in a certain number of specific situations...this one would have been to determine if a flagrant foul was committed.

saw a replay video of it and it was really much ado about nothing.....

Thanks guys.

Wasn't sure if something could be reviewed to see if the assistant coach did anything. I didn't think so.

So they were seeing if the player should receive a flagrant 2.

Got it.

Must be nice to have that option! Funny how the lower the level is, the lower the checks are & the less tools we have. We gotta get plays/situations right in real time while the big dogs can go to replay & fix stuff.

didn't say that you could only review the play to determine if a PLAYER committed a flagrant foul....I would be looking at BOTH the PLAYER and COACHES in that video review.

a kick from a player or coach on the bench would be treated the same - in this case a Flagrant 2 (which means ejection, 2 FT's for the offended team, & possession).

imho, it would have to be pretty obvious/clear that a Flagrant 2 happened...i would not "split hairs" here and penalize contact that was "maybe yes...maybe no".

I agree. When I saw it live, the only thing I was certain of was that I had no real idea what happened. The angle was bad.

Good clarification.
