I agree with you if the aim is to stop the clock. That is where the judgement comes in. If that hold looks like the 10 prior holds you've called all game without them being intentional, I can not agree with making this one intentional just because the clock has less than 1:37 on it. If the player is merely grabbing the arm and hanging on for dear life for no other reason than just to hang on, call the intentional. Same thing on the screen.
If the fed wanted us to automatically call everything intentional when a player without the ball gets fouled they'd give us a specifc time and say the foul is intentional if the player doesn't currently have the ball. They didn't. They used the term not involved in the play....to include players without the ball that are still involved in the play....setting screens, cutting to get open for passes, etc.
