I never said that "A&M was robbed of a win." I said that UCLA got lucky. And yes, if you blatantly foul the other team's shooter when you are up by two points in the closing seconds of a basketball game and nobody calls the foul, you got lucky.
I don't know whether Sloan would have made the free throws. I don't know whether A&M would have pushed UCLA to overtime. I don't know who would have won that game. All I know is that 1) Sloan was fouled; 2) If the foul was called, Sloan would have had a chance to tie the game; and 3) the foul wasn't called. Don't put different words in my mouth.
