The Cavs challenge at 10:27 in Q3 is the most important sequence of the game and I don't think enough people understand exactly what happened legally.
Scott Foster calls the foul on Jared Allen. Before they even announce a flagrant review, Kenny challenges — and that changes everything. Now we're at the monitor because of the challenge, not an independent flagrant review.
They find the clear arm pull from KAT on Allen, assign the proximate offensive foul, and the challenge is successful. But here's what people are missing: even on a coach's challenge review, officials CAN still upgrade to a flagrant if they see unnecessary contact. They chose not to — and I think that's the right call.
When Allen's arm is being held mid-air, it throws off his entire motion. What looks like a hard swipe at Hart's head is really a guy losing control of his body because he's being yanked. The contact to the head was glancing at best. I'd have made the same decision. #shorts
