My apologies, OV. You are correct, but I would swear that Finley made contact without the foul being called. I will go with your recollection.
It doesn't change the fact that Horry gave a clear, impossible not to call foul in the form of a body-check, with arms at his sides.
THAT won't hurt a player and it is clear that Horry's intention was not to hurt Nash.
Compare to Raja Bell's altercations with Kobe.
You aren't going to hurt someone with a body check, particularly when both his feet are on the ground. Knock him down, maybe. But if he wanted to harm Nash, he could have. Just by throwing an elbow or putting an arm in his way.
