Then again, that's part of the reason I'm not going to apologize for it being called. If he doesn't body/roll off a set defender in Steve Moore, he doesn't get into position to hit that shot. His drive had been sealed off by Moore and he had not choice but to either pick up his drive and settle for a set shot, or body Moore up and position himself for a makeable shot.

He chose the latter, but the latter's technically against the rules.

Had he missed the shot, it certainly would've been a no-harm/no foul situation. But he clearly used Moore's body and the running elbow to put himself in a position to make the shot. There was an unquestioned 'harm' that came from his decision. So for KU fans to say that it shouldn't have been called and that it was a 5- point swing is really disingenuous - he doesn't make that shot but/for the illegal contact. And it's flat out insane to claim that they should've called a foul on Moore instead when Moore had clearly established his position.

Sorry, I was thinking about the one where Dixon was knocked down. I obviously haven't obsessed enough over these.
