Yes - i am not exaggerating. 2-3 inches (6-9cm or so) from the opponent's face, screaming "BALL BALL BALL" so close flecks of spit are hitting them.
I do not care to get back into the argument - just answering a simple question.

I can see the concern here, 2 inches is pretty close. I've never seen this. I can't imagine it happening this way without contact, which could then be called a foul. I expect most of us are thinking of distances more like 6 inches to a foot or more apart. I've not seen much defense at all that involves 2 inch separation. I think if I saw the case you're describing, and the distance was really only 2 inches, I'd call a foul. THere's got to be some contact in there somewhere!
