I say again: After watching the replay, I thought it was an amazing call, I thought PJ dislodged the ball BEFORE contact was made with the arm, just as the ref indicated. Don't think he makes that call if it's not Luka, however.

The timing of PJ's touching of the ball, to me, had no effect on whether it was a foul or not. PJ came down across a player's arm, hard. That, to me, is a foul. It was the amount of contact. Also, I think PJ intended to foul him, and did.
