There must be a legitimate play on the ball or basketball play. What you deem as legitimate maybe different.
That being said after our local association meeting a message was sent to coaches making sure they understood that players not making a play on the ball would be called tighter than it had been previously.
Also regardless of intent, intentional or common the contact must still meet the threshold for being a foul. Some of these where there is no play on the ball but contact is minimal if you don't want to call INT you can probably pass on the contact.
Most of the plays presented I'm about 50-50 on whether I could pass on the foul or judge it to be playing the ball or a common hand checking foul. Based on the POE though on the ones I'm not judging that way they would be called INT.
