Like the spin move? :)

I do not work women's basketball, so I have no idea what you are talking about.

It was close but I think he was in the path before the shooter jumped too....so no block for that reason.

#2. Legal screen. He may have firmed up at contact but didn't throw his shoulder into the screened player.

+1

I would add that in Play #1, we can't see the defender's left foot, and his right foot looks to be "just" outside the semi-circle. As for timing, I think the defender is just there. He buckles his right knee a bit, but he's not shifting after the shooter is airborne IMO

1. No-call. The only player disadvantaged or displaced by the contact is the guilty party. No affect on the shooter, I'm likely to let this go.

2. No-call. Screener is simply bracing for contact, and he doesn't do so in a way that creates contact where it otherwise would have been absent.

The women's side became real concerned with the legality of the spin move a few years ago and whether the pivot foot returned to the floor before the release of the ball. This trickled down to the NFHS the following year, as the same people were in charge. The spin move doesn't appear to be a major problem/concern on the men's side.

#1 More then likely a no call by me unless my angle of the floor gives me something different.

#2 Got nothing. Hard screen but nothing illegal there.

#1. The camera angle and the positioning of another player(s) makes it impossible to see location of the defender's left foot. So, commenting on this play as it pertains to the RA is not legitimate. However, slo mo does indicate the defender moved into his final position after the shooter was airborne. So, I go with a block based on that criteria.

#2. Legal screen.

Block, forget RA.

and legal screen
