Potential Game Winner Waved Off
 

PC foul on a shot that went down and would've been a game winner at the end of OT at Columbia. Thoughts?? It is at 4:15 in the video...

Edit: Sorry guys, can't get the link to work properly...If anyone is interested it's at 4:15 in the Columbia/Harvard Highlight Video--I realize that's quite the hunt I'm sending everyone on but I can't figure out how to delete the thread...

PC foul. Not only ran defender over, but also led with the knee.

Great call!

Good call. Any idea what the trail might have been coming in to chat about?

Gutsy and correct call....quite unlike another recently discussed block/charge video.

I only do HS, not NCAA, but my guess is he's asking if he wants to count the basket for releasing before the foul...

PC all the way. Great call by the L

It's Lonely In here...
 

I think the defender continues moving to his right and slides underneath the airborne shooter, disagree with the PC. I've also watched the replay about 15 times so I certianly can't fault the PC call that was made.

I wish we had a different angle. I watched this over and over and I can see it both ways. Watching only the defender, he does slide to his right (and possibly into the shooter) after the shooter has left the ground. I think this video is too far away to be conclusive, and I don't think there is obvious right call here. In my opinion, the only really bad call would have been a no-call.

I too think he moved to the right a bit but I don't think it was a move that brought him underneath the shooter. I think he was in the path either way and the movement was irrelevant.

Doesn't matter anyway, contact occurred before A1 was airborne.

The embedded code was locking up some browsers it seems.

Agree with PC. Would have been nice if the official opposite table would have picked up on the rotation a bit sooner so that he potentially could of supported the play a bit more as C. Video makes it appear that Lead had been table side for a while.....

Would also like to see T stay engaged (close down a step or two) with the drive, mainly because the primary defender was involved. I would expect the L to hold for at least a secondary cadence on this play, especially considering the crash was high post.

Kind of looks like he did; the whistle wasn't immediate

The FIBA rule is similar to the NCAA. That was my guess.
