I called the intentional because he went out of his way to push the other player, did so roughly. In fact, he had a clear shot at the basket, but gave it up to step over and push his opponent.
The technical I was a little iffy about at the time, because my partner said he did not think the player's actions were unsportsmanlike, and he is much more experienced. Of course, today I remembered him telling me he had never called a technical foul before, so I'm not sure what he expected.
