I think it's a fantastic piece of officiating. The official on the ballside of the floor was pinned inside and had no idea what happened there.

BTW, that was the center making the call -- the L rotated over and put the old C / new T in a horrible position.
I was being sarcastic bro.

Actually, there was no foul called on the play.

You must be looking at a different play. The official across the court from the collision came running across with a whistle and a fist in the air.

The foul is on the BLUE player...and it's not even close.

it "looks" like the blue player has a "direct line" to the ball ONLY because of the camera angle….(if the camera was behind the white player - people would have a different opinion).

White player gets to the ball first and and pushed/contacted from behind by the blue player = foul on blue. It's a fairly typical play that occurs during a loose ball….

Are you talking about Blue #4 who might have made a little contact with the white player before running into the C??

If not, then you really need to stop eating those mushrooms growing in your backyard. They aren't what you think they are...

Stunned this went 3 pages. Simple call that shouldn't have even been a question. Foul on white. All day, every day.
