I saw this on the facebook group. I'd like some of your thoughts.

I will repeat what I said on FB....

This is a big fat nothing.....

Block. Defender bellies up to initiate contact.

But in a 2p crew where the trail was late catching up, I can understand the no call. If you don't have an angle to see the belly-up and you see the dribbler brush off the side of the defender, you have to decipher between marginal block or flop.

Could have used a good C to see this better.

Either there is a sniper in the gym, or that was a major flop.

[Nevadaref]

A defender in legal position who acts as if he has been displaced.
It's either a no-call or a technical foul for faking. The no-call seems better here.

floppity flop

[Smitty]

Call me crazy but it looks to me like the shooter threw his right shoulder into the torso of the defender. I don't see the defender moving toward the shooter. He definitely embellished the falling but to me if it's anything it's a charge.

I love how all you can hear is women squeeling and yelling for the duration of the video. Oh, the hysteria.

Player control foul. Plays like this make me appreciate the fact that I don't have to work 2 person games anymore.

I'd have a temptation to offer a back brace to the defender - he may have hurt himself flopping that hard! . . .

His team should wear T-shirts instead of jerseys.

Defender is in LGP and stays feet set. Doesn't move so forward so can't lose LGP.

Defender is also allowed to turn or move backwards to brace/protect themselves. There was contact and this player does so dramatically and violently. Can't t a kid up for being soft.

Don't think there is enough to say PC. Player moves sideways to avoid contact, defenders reaction to contact took them out of the play not the contact itself. No call and play on.

Huh? The guy is still as a statue! Had the night off and went to watch a game. Saw one worse than this. Kid has LGP standing like a statue gets demolished. Honestly, we as officials collectively are having a negative influence on legal defense.

What Facebook group btw... I have been looking for a good officiating group on there.

There was a major carry at the division line.
