They are in close quarters, but there's no hold there.

Look at the 24-25 second mark. Arm wraps around, hand on the back, almost touching the number.

Arms from both players come together at the moment of the push off. Offensive foul.

If the "hold" is so bad - call the hold.

This game reminded me of a private conversation I had this winter in a High School gym while working a game...

Veteran official "observing" my game: "Are they paying your partner?"
Me: "Sure, why wouldn't they?"
Vet: "He hasn't made a call other than OOB all night."

The guy has a great last name, but I'm getting him for that first dunk.

Did he push off? Yes. But it was to free himself. Defender was holding him first. Had his arm wrapped around his back.

Agreed, call the hold and we don't have to worry about the push.

I would get him for taunting or talk to him at some point. Honestly, no one knows if he was talked to unless you were in the arena watching the game and saw the official step to that player or talk to a coach. And even then it would be hard to know for sure if he was warned.

The second play both players have their arms on each other. And yes the Virginia player has his arms around the waist of the MSU player, but I see no restriction. I would have called the push off more likely.

Peace

That was the whole point.
