I do not care what a particular local officals association says. The only important ruling is what is correct under NFHS Rules. Depending upon what the defender does it is either disconcertion and therefore a violation, or it is unsportsmanlike conduct and therefore is a technical foul. The defender's actions cannot be deemed both.

Got a rules citation that will back that up, Mark?

He doesn't need one. You've lready provided it for him..
"The committee emphasizes that disconcertion is a violation(9-1-5) and may result in a substitute throw. If persistent or deemed unsporting, the team/player may be penalized with a technical foul".
It's no different than a defender who commits BI and hangs on the rim. Penalize the violation and award the points. Penalize the hanging on the rim with a technical foul.

Same argument-4 years later,Tony. Back then it was "you can't call disconcertion on the bench" too. Remember that one?
