While certainly a suspect intentional foul, it did not "hand" the game to the home team.

Giving someone 4 FTs and possession sure makes it close, however.

Interestingly enough, the very next play is another intentional foul called with the same two participants involved. Play starts at 1:02:40.

What gets lost in all this is that so many people consider every bad call (which I agree this was) to be a conspiracy. He made a call against us. He obviously is cheating so we would lose. end of story. Who knows? This guy may make bad calls every night.

That is, IMHO, a crap comment, Camron. He did not "give" them 4 free throws. To make a comment like that puts you in the same category as the fan who initially posted the video.

Argue whether or not it was an IF all day. But #3 in blue earned his T. To turn around and say that the official gave the other team free throws is just wrong.

For the record, I would not have had an IF on that play either. But if a partner did, so be it.

Not getting anything out of a 2 on 1 break (missed two from three feet) then getting stripped started this whole mess.

Could have been only down 4 with 24 seconds remaining had someone not popped off... Then a stupid intentional foul on the throw-in sealed it.

Poor decision by the T, but he didn't hand them the game.

Exactly. The team that got fouled was already winning.

similiar to the 0.2 seconds left play, these men should be flogged in public and never allowed to work a HS game again
