To borrow a term from soccer officiating, I find that contact with the left arm to be trifling. I wouldn't mind a call here, but I wouldn't have a whistle.

Based on first time viewing, and then on the replay, I don't have a foul.

Different question, though, on Lead's position. He was very close to the sideline and may/may not have been straightlined on the play. Instead of staying where he was, would you follow the ball/close down once the ball handler begins to back down to the basket, or would you rather not be moving yourself in order to ensure a clean look? Mostly interested in high school interp since that's what I call, but would welcome any thoughts.

I do not agree that this was a foul.
It wasn't. TV had a good angle that a lead might have had (though, admittedly not 3d) and I wouldn't have called anything.

I have no foul b/c KD got a clean release. But I didn't like Washington's positioning, felt he should have moved to keep an angle to see in between the players. I grimace every time I see myself on film and I don't move to keep good angles.
