[QUOTE="ever, post: 2030179, member: 750480"] A defensive player is allowed to contact the rim as long as it doesn't rattle the rim in a way that affects the ball's movement. The ball never touched the rim, so that didn't happen. The defensive player is also allowed to maintain contact with the ball as it enters the cylinder (which the ball may barely have done), so it isn't goaltending. The officials missed the contact to the head, but that's it, and I can't say they don't sometimes allow such contact. Hawkins could have done a lot more to draw contact and/or make any attempt at a block impossible. As for the foul on Harmon being "sold", maybe it was- none of us know how much force Harmon applied. But Harmon shouldnt stick his arm out there like that. Either be ready to follow your man, or if you are, don't stick your arm out for no reason. [/QUOTE]
