The L was responsible for the secondary defender, but the C was responsible for the drive and should have stayed with the drive through the crash (as part of any crash situation - pregame). It is not over for the C just because the play was in the lane and it involved a secondary defender.

The T would have been responsible for BI/GT as part of the instruction coming down from the NBA. The T had a better look (geometry).

This is an ICNC every time.

I think you're misreading what Nevada's saying. He specifically stated that his opinion was what he was thinking the official judged - not that it is Nevada's opinion that it was the correct judgment by the official.

Unless you are the "Smith" referenced in the post and play. If that's the case, you have every right to assert that Nevada's opinion of what he's guessing was going through the official's mind at that point is incorrect. Otherwise, I think there's a misunderstanding happening here.

I'm sorry, but this is hilarious.

Putting aside the issue of who should have made that call, what about the fact that the refs saw the play, but froze on it, knowing that there was only 10 seconds left. It takes guts to make that call (although not much since it appeared to be a no-brainer).

I still think the biggest travesty was the terrible call a few seconds later with the call on the kid who had the Kansas player lying on him after getting steamrolled! There was no reason for that call, especially since the pass was made out anyways.
