Correct call of goaltending made by the crew in real time and confirmed by replay

I thought GT on the original angle. It's not as though the ball was going to change direction without any help.
If Noah had any guts, he would've told his coach he touched it so the guy wouldn't have nearly burst a blood vessel when the crew made its ruling.

No player may not touch the ball anytime a ball, from the playing area, is on its downward flight with a chance a score.

Everyone knew Noah touched the ball, everybody not knowing the rule is what caused the announcers and Thibodeaux to sound/look like fools.

Bulls fans need to ask themselves, would they have wanted goaltending if a defender had gone up and swatted that ball away? If so, then the offensive guy can't go up and do the same thing, right? That ball looked a bit short, but it still had a chance.

And it's a violation in NFHs rule set also. Makes no distinction as to whether it's an offensive or defensive player:
Rule: 4-22 Goaltending occurs when a player touches the ball during a field-goal try or tap while it is in its downward flight entirely above the basket ring level and has the possibility of entering the basket in flight, or an opponent of the free thrower touches the ball outside the cylinder during a free-throw attempt.

Blatant goaltending, and idiotic commentary --- even by commentary's normal standards of idiocy.

They were too caught up in the offensive basket interference portion of the play (which is a valid consideration on this play)...and didn't realize...or probably don't know that the same goaltending restrictions that apply to the defense apply to the offense. Not sure if most commentators know it either.
