Did Refs Miss a Foul on Chet Before the KAT Flagrant? Chip Clark Weighs In

KAT vs. Chet: The Missed Foul That Sparked the Flagrant (Referee Breakdown)
The flagrant on KAT was the right call. No question. But the real story is what happened before it. Chet's arm comes down enough to create illegal contact first, and the refs missed it. Our referee in residence Chip Clark agrees.
This is one of the most common patterns in officiating: miss the first foul, then catch the retaliation. It's not a conspiracy. The game is fast, refs are human, and they're still getting 90%+ of calls right. But when you miss the initiating contact, you're setting the whole sequence up wrong.
Combo and I break down the full play, and we actually got Chip on to weigh in live. Worth watching if you want to understand how these sequences really unfold. #shorts
