There is disadvantage!!!
If I shove a player that is at the top of the key, out of bounds regardless of where the ball is, it is a foul. Because if that player gets up and decks the player that fouled him, you will not take the same idea I guarantee that.
All the time coaches are trying to tell us that "this" happen first and you should not call a foul on "my" guy because "the other guy" pushed him first.
Rough play has nothing to do with the game and should be called every time.
I am a huge advocate of advantage/disadvantage principles, but knocking a guy down and waiting to see whether the shot went in or not has nothing to do with that principle.
Peace
