It wasn't about hitting the ball first. Its about dislodging the ball from the shooter. If he had lost control of the ball, the subsequent contact on the arm would have been ignored. But since the ball wasn't dislodged, and was still in the act of shooting, the foul was called with the contact to the arm.
It was an obvious foul and the OKC coach should never have called for a review.

Leaderboard is full of big names. Can Xander finally win a major after knocking at the door? Lots of guys looking to add to their major collection .
The way the course is playing with greens soft it a entirely possible someone shoots another 62 or 63 and posts a good score early

Have to agree with Muggs here. It was an obvious foul. You have that time-out, you advance the ball and you have a legit chance to tie or win. You give up the time-out for a challenge that had no chance to succeed, and you almost surely lose.
If you get the ball first, you are allowed to hit the arm on the follow through. That happened earlier in the series. Apparently that didn't apply here, as the ball had not been released yet. We found that out when the announcers went to talk to their New York ref, but the actual ref rudely interrupted and made the call over the microphone. It wasn't , to me, a 100% a foul until I saw the replay. But the way Tony Brothers had it in for Luka, I thought the cal would be overturned

I would say you're better than that, but, well...
Oh well.

Even if you think it's borderline or 50/50 you can't challenge. The only way you challenge that one is if you're 100% sure there is no foul. They would have had plenty of time to draw something up from half-court. As I side note, I'm not a fan of the challenge system and how it's administered. My solution would be to only allow it the final 3 mins, with the understanding that refs will miss some calls during the course of the game. I wouldn't have a limit to the challenges under 3 mins, and if it's a successful challenge, I wouldn't take away a time-out.

Sorry you don’t have my experience.
Or understand how to quote correctly.

If he wins the challenge, they win the game.
But it was a clear foul. Just a bad decision. Very upsetting but OKC will be back.
