If the clip were a bit longer, you'd see how it all developed (A friend made the clip for me...I have the DVD but have never captured short clips form one...need to figure out how).
At 2:06, the ball was FT line extended at the sideline on the L's side. So I was out at the 3-point line extended.
At 2:05, it was passed across the top and then down to the corner on the T's side by 2:04....very quick ball movement.
I was starting to cross the lane when that player drove the ball back into the key near the upper FT lane space. So I backed out as the play was coming to my side.
At 2:01, he reversed it back to the wing where the player immediately drove into contact at 1:59.
Being across the floor would have been ideal but the way the play shifted around, I'm not sure anyone else would have been there unless they were frantically moving all over the place.
It certainly looks a whole lot more like a charge on the video than it did on the floor from my angle. I'm not entirely convinced, however, that the video angle is right to conclude I was simply wrong (it was and a couple other calls
). It certainly isn't looking through the play any more than I was. I don't think you can tell if the defender was moving forward or not from that video angle...which is why I had judged it a block. I'd love to have a view looking from the endline on the side where the contact occurred....where I would have ideally been.
