Looked to me like the defender maintained a legal guarding position.

Hmm. Would like to see the video on that one. The replays they showed looked pretty vertical.

Watch the defender's hands while he's in the air in the view from the endline. That'll tell you which direction the defender was moving (into the shooter).

Someone will post a video. I'm guessing that it's unlikely people will move off their opinions, though.

I'd like the no call at 1:30, too, if anyone can grab it. That one, I also suspect, will have disagreement that the video may not settle.

To me, it looked like the shooter jumped into him.

(Of course, I don't even DO basketball, and you just worked a state final so...)

No foul at 14.2 seconds. Defender stayed legal and moved with vertical plane. Not a huge miss though.

Or maybe not a miss at all.

I'm not saying the shooter didn't initiate the contact to a certain degree. I'm saying that the defender wasn't entirely vertical, that he moved into the shooter.

I'm a big believer in verticality - I just think it's a stretch to say this defender was vertical.

That is a vertical defender in my opinion. If the Louisville player had made both FTs the call would have had a substantial impact. As it turned out he only made 1 of 2 and still being behind Louisville had to foul.
