I agree that they could have passed on the held ball and called the travel which would have given the ball back to Louisville.

Or, they could have called a foul on either player.

Or they could have 'just let the players decide the game'

I have a foul. Too much contact.

I'm fine with the held ball call.

All of which came after the defender grabbed the ball and the opponent tried to twist it away from the defender.

How in the heck could the L see this, and I really don't like the C's look either. For me the definition of a held ball was not met. At most that was a 4th/5th grade girls held ball.

It amazes me that you can get so many different opinions on every call and they expect us to be consistent.

I was fine with the call before someone gets a loose fist.

I just saw another angle of the play. It was a lot more conclusive. Held ball was a good call.

Sometimes you have to just look at an official on a tough play and say, "it sucks to be him." Tough play..... lots of options. In real time, I have no problem with a held ball rather than a weak foul or a travel that might have been the result of a weak foul.

That's funny, considering we don't have either L's look or C's look.

Where is the old T/new L in all of this? He is not even in the picture. He might have had the best look had he been where he needed to be at this time.
