Ask and ye shall receive. I was wondering whether anyone else had seen it.

Not a good get from T ... L and C had much better looks at this and apparently had nothing.

What could he have had there?

[Rich]

I could see the T seeing 00 step forward into the airborne shooter -- actually, that's the one thing I could see the T having a really good angle on. Look at 00's feet when the shooter goes airborne and look where they end up.

I'm not saying I agree with the foul. I am saying I don't have his look.

Could have been the old I'm straight up walk under move. Hard to see from that angle but could have been that causing the shooter to fade away.

I can see that now. Definitely by looking at where the shooter left his feet and where he landed on the floor, there may have been some displacement by the defender. Not a good look from this camera angle.

Clearly the call had to be based on the way 00 pushed his knee out into the path of the player and that 00 slide over a few feet from his original position which means he did not maintain verticality, making contsct with both.

But on a side note, what about the jersey grab by 15 at the other post? Would have been a better call and occured first.

I've got nothing, if there is something there it is marginal.

Thanks for finding that. I don't have anything here and I didn't when watching it in real time.

Upon first viewing I didn't see anything, but after watching it again I saw the defender stepping in while trying to keep his torso away from the shooter. So while it's not an obvious foul, and I very well may have passed on it myself, the foul call was fine.

[Raymond]

He walked into the airborne shooter. Whether the contact was worthy of a foul, that is debatable.
