Cingram, I think that I need to clarify one thing. The live ball/dead ball criteria to differentiate between flagrant personal and technical fouls is a fairly accurate rule of thumb, but there are exceptions however. [/QUOTE]
Actually, it's not a "rule of thumb". The live ball/dead ball rule is used only when you are going to call the foul because of contact. If the contact occurs during a live ball, it's a personal. If the contact occurs during a dead ball, it's a technical. Any non-contact foul, whether during a live or dead ball, is a technical.
Both personal and intentional fouls can be called flagrant, which means an ejection is involved. Only personal fouls can be called intentional.
