Foul During Free Throw (Fool the Official)
Not a common play:

Defensive player in top position grabs offensive players arm and pulls him over causing the lane violation. C couldn't see that, and T was not paying any attention.

That's actually a pretty funny sequence. Black player was definitely sneaky in causing the whistle...but it looks like white actually violated first by pushing his butt into the black player to start the whole series. Looks like karma to me.

White 30 was trying to be sly during his violation but black player had a better answer.

This is an area we just seem to go to sleep on. I am not surprised it was missed and I missed it until I read certain comments.

Peace

MultipleSports should be along shortly to comment b/c that was his hero, Al Battista, who made the call.

The Trail should have offered some help on this play as he appears to be looking in the direction of those 2 players.

Agreed. I'm trying to increase my concentration here. As soon as you let your guard down and take a play, any play, for granted, that's when the "fit hits the shan."

I agree. Look at the offensive player's feet. It appears his left foot is on the lane-space mark before the defensive player decides to take him for a drag.

It's on the entire crew however those two players are the L's problem until the FT is in the air.

Not when the L takes himself out of the play by going as wide as he did. No way he could see all that sneakiness from where he put himself. T was the one who had the best look at those two knuckleheads.

A foul is not the same thing as a violation. Basketball Rules 101.
