Tell me if you believe this is a foul on the three point shot

I didn't believe it was a foul but more of a flop to try to influence the officials. Cost Michigan the game 87 to 86 to undefeated Oklahoma. It was about as ticky tack of a foul call as I've seen. The officials certainly didn't want the teams to decide the game--apparently. I do have to give credit to Oklahoma's great freshman PG though(6'4 Jeremiah Fears who had 30 points). He carried the sooners in this one. Pretty much unstoppable and one of the best (if not the best) PGs I've seen this year.

How would you call it?
