Message: [QUOTE="cancontent, post: 4447620, member: 10709"] Both perspectives can be true. The refs got the calls right. Bessoir was tagged for a foul because she bumped Boston out of position while taking the shot. Boston got the basket and the free throw for the continuation. For all that is being said about Peck's comments, she has a point. Post players, especially those as tall as Boston, Cardoso, etc., have a disadvantage when being defended by players shorter in these situations. How Boston was positioned is how post players are coached. How Bessoir defended her is how players are coached to do. However, when the arm comes in contact with the head/above the neck, it has to be called. Doesn't matter if Bessoir's arm slipped. [/QUOTE]
