Play 2. Some contact. I don't find it unreasonable.

Play 3. Close play, but it doesn't look like the defender prevented the release of the shot so probably incorrect. Good sell though.

#1: A1 is still outside the 3-point line when the whistle and fist occur. Just an horrendously handled play all the way around, IMO.

#2: After the call in Play 1, a whistle should definitely have come earlier on this play.

#3: As I said in the original thread, this is the expected call. Corbett is not going to get dinged for that call, I guarantee you. A1 went up to shoot, B1 got hand on the ball, A1 returned to the floor with the ball. If anyone says that technically this was a travel or a fumble per the rule book, I won't dispute you either way. I'm saying what call is expected on this type of play.

What league does the T in play 2 typically work for? I haven't seen that guy all year, and now I'm seeing him all the time. I've nicknamed him the silver fox.

play 1 - looks like a wrong spot, but no one outside of this website probably noticed

play 2 - there were a couple fouls there (notice the air punch to the side by the silver fox before the actual foul)

play 3 - on that last above angle it looks like the defender knocked it loose and it could have been a play on, but it was a bang/bang play and I don't have a problem with the call.

The Silver Fox is Brian O'Connell, long time Big East official

There was definitely something there. I can't fault him for grabbing it either way...a case can be made for either jump or travel.

What cracked me up though was the running gator chomp mechanic after the whistle...followed by index fingers to the sky...LOL
