Welcome to the board, NathanRT. Just keep in mind that those two factors are not prerequisites to calling an intentional foul. There may be a situation where the foul is "necessary" from the fouling team's perspective, and is not a hard enough foul to hurt anyone, but the foul is still intentional. Looks like you called one in a good situation for it.
