I know. I was informed this week by a coach that taking both hands and pushing a post player in the back so they get displaced by about 2 feet is a "cheap foul".

Gee, I guess I still have a lot to learn after all these years.
It's cheap only because apparently a lot of officials are too busy watching the ball handler to notice this activity.

I get at least a few off-ball calls like this every game and I certainly can't be alone there. I enjoy off-ball officiating so much that sometimes (especially after working a lot of 3-whistle and moving back to 2) I forget I have on-ball coverage. Whoops.
