“That slapped ball call was wrong.”

That’s one that the refs got right, as the replay clearly shows. Also, look at the reaction of the Tech player as it went off his hand. He knew he touched it last. Now, the missed double dribble by Jerome in the semi-final game was a blown call.

I hate the use of replay in this instance - mainly because in 50 years of playing and watching B-ball, 100% of the time that type of poke-away goes back to the offensive team. Easy call - no one complains. Plus the replay allows the refs to second guess possession based on a grazed pinky finger, but not analyse whether either of the two defenders grazed the ball-handler and committed a foul.
