From where we were sitting at the game, it appeared part of the problem was Oubre's actions as Forte did his thing so to speak. Oubre's arms moved in a manner that all but insured a call from the ref from his visual perspective at that point. Oubre would have been well served to immediately have gone hands up to put all the origination of contact on Forte. Forte got his payback later on. There was one instance in particular where he got absolutely hammered going to the hole and the refs all swallowed their whistle. I don't think they took kindly to being baited like that earlier and it sorta backfired on Forte.
