Indiana/Michigan block/charge

[Nevadaref]

The 2nd half blocking foul by Valentine is the only one worthy of discussion.
The defender was moving forward and the offensive player used his arm to push off.

This was correctly called a block by Teddy V.

I'm trying to gather the video now. Is the second half blocking foul among the three mentioned in the OP?

Does anyone have a time on the 2nd half call that Nevadaref, twocents and Jay R were talking about?

The one that I referenced was in the first half, probably 12:00 to 14:00 minute mark. Indiana player drove from C's area and Michigan defender tried to draw charge. The C called a block and the basket was good. The L also had a whistle and looked like he wanted to call a charge but he held his signal.

The 2nd half play was probably around the 5 minute mark. It happened right in front of Michigan's bench. The Indiana defender tried to draw a charge but did not have great position, however the Michigan player also pushed off around the same time.

Do you have a time on this?

No call, PC, and PC.

For the last one, look where the offensive players feet end up after the defender goes down relative to where the defenders feet had been. Only way they get there is if the offensive player goes through the defender.

For the last one, just call the travel and block/charge becomes irrelevant.

If only there was a travel there.

Left foot looked like it was lifted prior to the dribble ... by the book, a travel.

I really think the book needs to be changed.

This would never be called a travel at this level and it doesn't serve the game well to even think of it as so.

(If you can't tell, I'm never overly impressed with those who can find nitpicky travels in videos like this.)

With these camara angles, this is what I've got.

10:13: No call
9:14: Easy PC
7:06: Hard to see, may be a PC, but I think I'd pass, no call.
