Anyone have video of RARE PC? (Verticality)

Please forgive my ignorance on the NBE rules, but what's the ruling with the RA? Is this ignored on this play, or does the RA have a totally different ruling as compared to the NCAA?

(I guess on second look, you could say that LBJ extended his knee therefore eliminating the RA.)

Even in NCAA the RA wouldn't apply b/c Hibbert was not trying to draw a charge, he was playing active defense and trying to block the shot.

In the NBA, the RA does not apply to a defender who alights in an attempt to block a shot.

I can tell you I'm not no-calling this and I'm not calling it a block... Nor am I going with travel. If I'm the L on this type of play it's going the other way too. This was a good call on a very big stage with a very big star. Steely of nerve. Does anyone have any links to the post-game comments? Clearly Pat wasn't impressed, not that it matters.

I just wonder if our little bodies (as compared to Red 6 ) at the high school level can create this much of an impact in the air. Tough to get to the to-and-through threshold. One could argue that it wasn't met in this play either. That might be why it gets no-called a lot. Just my little big bang theory.

As seen in the other thread, contact with a vertical defender is very tempting to call a block. I just saw a similar play in tonight's CAA championship game between Delaware and William and Mary. I couldn't find the game on ESPN3, but the play is at 0:51 in the second half.
