2) as far as a technical goes, if it looks intentional than its a technical.

2)Forget about "intentional". A player can't grasp the ring at any time,unless it's done to prevent an injury. That's the criteria that you use to call it a T or not.

It doesn't sound to me like Roady's asking about hanging on the rim. It sounds like he's saying that in the official's judgment, the defender "intentionally" took the ball off the rim to keep the ball from going in.
If that's the scenario under discussion, this is NOT a technical foul, even if you think he's doing it to showboat or whatever. Score the points and move on.
