At least the Trail, who "stole" this call from Lead, got it right: Player Control foul!

A possession or three before, a block was called against Olynyk that could have easily been a charge. The lead (who had his call stolen if you will) was the same official who called the block against Olynyk. He may have wanted to call a block for the sake of consistency.

Olynk started at about the 3 point line, I would not say this was the Leads responsibility at this point - he then drove left into the paint, near the 3 point line. L had the best look at seeing the defender slide into position. I think the defender got there late. From the positions on the court, it was in L's PCA, but it started in the T's PCA, so he went with it.

I think it was the wrong call, but called by the right official.

Regardless, I like that they did not go BLARGE and have that stoopid double foul.
I hate that the NCAA says we have to have a block and charge.

The directive is that the L has secondary defenders, I really dont see a block on this play and not sure how the L came to that conclusion. Torso-to-torso, to and through.

The lead clearly displayed enough that anyone in the gym knew he had a block. By rule (like it or not) that should have been a double foul.

That said, the trail got it right.

But what if the lead was the one who was right? Is getting it completely backwards better than the double foul?

[icallfouls]

Please cite your rules reference.

It is not a double until both officials signal the nature of the call. Once both officials have signaled completely different calls, then they must have the double. Yes, everyone in the gym knew what he was likely to call.

However, I will say that I remember a game where I came up with two hands and actually correctly called a PC. So it is possible, though remote, he was about to signal charge.

The crew narrowly averted the BLarge because the L did not signal.

Agree. B2 arrived at the spot before A1 did and A1 was not airborne. So B2 met his obligations.

And the trail communicated the way he did because he didn't want the Lead to finish his Block mechanic. I have no problem with what he did.

If the trail knew what the lead's signal was, then it was done. He overruled his partner. He may have got the right call, but he did so by breaking another rule.

The earlier block call was easy...no LGP until after the player left the floor.
