Here's the questionable loose ball foul by James. LET THEM PLAY!

If there was no call, UT would have the ball tied at 69.

UGGGGHH

Thanks, I almost forgot about this call!
I think the worst part of it was Kellog (is that who was calling the game?) said something like “It was absolutely the right call.” That killed me. James and the Dookie were both going for the ball-No Call was the right call.

and the ref gets right in his face like he's baiting him to blow up

And according to the Barking guy

the ref who made the call had the worst view of the play of the 3 refs. He was in the backcourt.

He jumped into him with the body

probably should have been a no call, but there was contact enough to call it. I was more frustrated with the fact that the same calls were not made on the other end, then the call on the loose ball followed by no over the back call.

I agree that it could've been a foul

but just like holding in football, it could be called way more often than it is in reality. The main problem I have is the timing. Late in the game, those kind of calls should not be made. At that point, the refs should let the kids play ball. We weren’t exactly getting those fouls on the other end of the court either like you said.
