You really,
really need to read that case play.
The FED deliberately took that type of thinking out. Read POE#3B in the 2005-06 rulebook, Mark, if you still have it. That'll tell you that you're wrong also.....
"There is a right way and a wrong way to foul. Coaches must instruct their players in the proper technique for strategic fouling. "Going for the ball" is a common phrase, but intentional fouls should still be called on players who go for the ball if it is not done properly. Conversely, a coach who yells "Foul" instructions to his/her team does NOT mean that the ensuing foul is "automatically" an intentional foul- even though it is a strategic foul designed to stop the clock. Coaches, officials, players, fans and administrators must accept fouling as a legitimate coaching strategy."
The FED changed it's philosophy and we have to change with them.
