I know they want us working wider as L this year and it's something I'm struggling to adjust to ... but if she would have closed down or even pinched the paint a bit she may have been more inclined to put a whistle on this play, even if it was a late one.

Then again, maybe not. As I watch the replay, the shooter and defender are clearly on C's side of the lane ... it may be she's simply trusting her partner to work her primary.

And, even if she rotates, she might not be looking up high enough to see the contact on the outside arm.

On that particular play, and any play that has a shot like that we should be looking at feet for 2 or 3, then shift to point of contact which on these jump shots is going to be elbow to wrist, and then focus our attention to feet again to make sure the shooter has a spot to land.
I think if the lead is on the strong side on this play, that should be the only thing they should be looking at.
