Nope. Learn the rules and watch the video. Brown grabbed Jerome’s jersey at 4.0.

Lawd...people are myopic. It wasn't a foul on Brown, basketball is a contact sport. It was a double dribble but the refs missed the call. It was a foul on the 3 point shot, but you'd hope the ref would swallow the whistle on that contact in that situation.

Love the Barn melt.
Correct call: UVA ball, 4.0 left.
Call on the court: UVA ball, 1.5 left.
What Auburn wants: Auburn ball, 2.5 left.
The refs gave them a better situation than they should have had, and they’re whining that they got screwed

Anyone here would have melted had that been their team. Does it suck to lose in that fashion? Hell yes! Me personally though, I question the whole strategy at the end of the game. I didn’t like using all of those fouls to chew up clock because I thought it gave VA a chance to collect themselves instead putting the pressure on them to make a last second shot. Why the frick were we fouling on a shot from half court anyway? That’s a low percentage shot. So people can bitch about the foul, but our tactics up until that point were questionable

Brown obviously didn’t know how much time was left. I think it was the right strategy. Just didn’t work out.

Technically, Brown should have fouled before the ball crossed half court. That was the right strategy. It was bang, bang. The double dribble sequence sent things out of sorts.

I’m just curious how many people saw that it was a double dribble live before CBS brought it up right after the foul on the three? Would anyone be talking about it today if they hadn’t showed it?

If they correctly call 2 then 3 never happens
I see.

I'd guess not many...CBS was using that terrible angle at the time and it wasn't as obvious from that perspective. Either ref on the court was in position and should have made the call. It sucks to have a game turn on a missed call, but it happens. Auburn could have won on our own merit but we created the scenario to allow it to come down to those plays.

I still don't agree with the premise, though.
Missing the double dribble is equivalent to a ball hitting the rim and bouncing over the backboard and rattling around and falling over with no call of out of bounds or whatever the call is.
Dribbling off your foot and then picking the ball up and dribbling again with no call for double dribble is equivalent to to a player making a basket and an official not acknowledging that it was a basket.
There is no judgment involved here, like there is for calling a foul on a player.

You’re self-trolling and blaming me.

This.
Some calls are subjective. Every foul call technically is a subjective decision.
A double dribble either happens or doesn't.

Still within the rules for the ref not to call it. It isn't that complicated.

Exactly. So how can you say the refs did Auburn a favor? They were trying to foul and it wasn’t called, forget the double dribble. If they call the foul Virginia has what, two seconds left inbounding from backcourt? They didn’t do Auburn a favor.
