If it's a pump "fake", how do you know the shooter's intent when he was fouled? If he's fouled at the start of the pump or at the top who's to say he did not intend to follow through on "THAT" attempt? The "PumP" is another definition of starting a try or faking a try, but again, who's to say when he got fouled, whether at the beginning of "that" pump or the end that he wasn't going to continue. In my opinion, each pump is a start of a try, and if gets fouled his intent was a "try".

I also agree with whoever said "A VERBAL WARNING TO THE HEAD COACH TO CONTROL HIS BENCH" wouldn't have hurt as much as popping him with "T" on the first infraction.
