Flagrant?

How can throwing the ball at the official be a flagrant foul? Don't you have to foul someone to make a foul flagrant? Sure, we could eject the player for unsporstmanlike conduct, but I don't see how it is a flagrant foul.

As for this situation, I had a similar one last night. My partner called a foul and the player disagreed and spiked the ball into the air right in front of me. The only twist here is that my partner blew the call - it was not a foul. I assessed the 'T' anyway because players need to learn how to handle their emotions - even when they might be right.
