After a few months break, EuroLeague basketball has finally returned, and so has the Give Me Control column.

For those who don't know, Todd Warnick is a referee consultant for BasketNews. He refereed for many years at the top levels of Israeli and international basketball, and after his retirement, he consulted, coached, mentored, and evaluated referees on behalf of the officiating departments of the Euroleague, FIBA, and Israel. 

This time, Todd will focus on the crucial play during the FC Bayern Munich – Real Madrid matchup.

A no-call on Bayern's Nick Weiler-Babb on a 3-point shot attempt by Real Madrid's Facundo Campazzo led to a protest by the Argentinian guard, which resulted in his disqualification and, ultimately, a 97-89 win for the German team.

Does Facu (and Real Madrid) have a gripe about this play?
