- Was it a voluntary, planned act?
- Was the ball contact caused by the movement of the defender?
- Was the act of an unsporting nature?

If your answers are yes, no and yes, then call an unsporting technical foul of some kind on the thrower. That would also make the answer True btw.
Hold on a second here Mr Big Dawg.

Isn't it true that a live ball contact foul is never a technical foul? Wouldn't this be a personal intentional or flagrant foul? But never a technical foul?
