Final play of regulation.

Here's the play. I'd love to shake the hand of the person who posted this to YouTube...saved me some work

[Nevadaref]

Definitely in the RA.

[Zoochy]

is that reviewable?

[Raymond]

No it's not reviewable. What I want to know is why the C stopped running on the play. He is responsible for providing help on the specific play.

I also agree with BNR, that this is the type of play that the Center HAS to get in position for (as best as possible) to provide help on.

Agreed, C did not work hard enough to get into position to help on the play. Should have been a block because of RA. An argument could be made that the ball was out of the shooters hand before contact, so even going with the wrong call, the basket would have counted and then free throws on the other end.

C is the same guy who missed the shooting foul in UCONN-Louisville that led directly to Kevin Ollie's ejection. Perhaps biz will be along shortly to re-verify Brian O'Connell's dedication.

The missed call did not lead directly to Ollie's ejection. Missed calls happen all the time. As a D1 coach, Ollie is expected to demonstrate restraint and professionalism in those situations. Ollie's inability to control himself and his actions lead to him being ejected. He has no one to blame but himself.

Was that really a missed call?

Did the defender not start outside of the RA and back into it? Perhaps the lead judged that he established LGP before he stepped back into the the RA.

He would be wrong on that account as well. LGP was initially established with at least one, if not both feet in the RA.

He did have both feet on the floor and in the path well before he backed into the RA too. The only question is whether he was facing the opponent "enough" or not.

This play is going to be a RA blocking foul no matter how you look at it.

[HawkeyeCubP]

RA block. Center was too high literally the entire time from when the throw-in ended.

Did they go to the monitor after this? Was it to determine if there was time left on the game clock at the time of the foul?

[blindzebra]

Not only did he never have LGP outside the RA but he was moving after upward motion started too.
