"Not...Based Solely on the Severity of the Act"
Given that a foul intentionally committed "...may be strategic to stop the clock..." (POE #3), and "Fouling near the end of a game is an acceptable coaching and playing strategy" (4.19.3D COMMENT), the expectations expressed in this year's POE seem to mandate that we call "Intentional Foul" on any end-of-game foul committed in order to stop the clock which is done:
...without playing the ball
...against a player away from the ball
... regardless of the degree of severity or lack thereof.
Question #1: Am I reading this POE correctly? Anything I'm missing?
Question #2: With those parameters in mind, am I correct that each of these "end-of-game" fouls they want us to instruct officials to call "Intentional", in spite of the minimal level of severity?
They Want Us to Call This "Intentional", Right? #1
They Want Us to Call This "Intentional", Right? #2
They Want Us to Call This "Intentional", Right? #3
They Want Us to Call This "Intentional", Right? #4
They Want Us to Call This "Intentional", Right? #5
They Want Us to Call This "Intentional", Right? #6
They Want Us to Call This "Intentional", Right? #7
