The defender was called for the foul. Watching it live I thought it was the right call. With benefit of replay and slow motion I can see why fans of the defender's team might disagree.

I couldn't care less about either team, but I'm with MD Longhorn on this. PC or nothing. The defender looks veritical to me, I don't see what he did wrong.

I agree with this. From the angle here, in slow motion, it did appear that the defender was jumping pretty much vertically, but a view from the endline might show something different.

PC or nothing on this for me. I'd lean towards nothing mainly because the defender wasn't (edit) displaced.

Same type of thing we see on desperation heaves at the end of quarters/games where the coaches scream for a foul despite the legal defender and the shooter initiating contact.
