There is nothing in the play in question that suggests an intentional unsporting act.
Did you miss the "or technical foul?" I did not say it was out of the question to call a violation by anyone. I said that calling a violation is something I would not do. You can do what you want. I just do not think that would be right to the offense that are playing a man down and stop the game because we have a player that does not know what they want to do after a substitution. That was the point I made in the first response. So if you want to just call a violation you have that right. I just think if I am going to do anything I am calling a T in this case. Once again, taking our time and being preventative is the best policy so we are sure who is supposed to be on the court. What is the hurry to put the ball in play?

Correct me if I'm wrong, JRut, but both teams had 5 players on the floor. Are you going to fault the ref for putting the ball into play? For heaven's sake, what ref goes around and asks the players if they are sure they are supposed to be in the game? All we do is count and make sure we have the right number of players in the game. I don't see this as the ref's fault.
