I appreciate the thoughts. I'll try to clarify for better discussion...there was no shot involved. It was a transition play with a steal and a pass back to A1, who was fouled by B1.
I'll try to describe as distinctly as possible. The pass was up-court to A1. B1 was in front of, but moving the opposite direction of A1, so as A1 caught the ball headed toward his goal it was obvious B1 was beat. He reached out and down with his left arm and grabbed across both arms of A1 (this is where I registered a foul in my brain), and a continued motion as A1 continued past him, B1 reached around with his right arm and grabbed B1 around the waist from behind. The grabbing happened simultaneously with my whistle (which doesn't matter, but gives you a timeframe for the entire play).
It was a situation I've played over many times since last night. I reacted to the grab by calling an intentional, though I'm now leaning toward the thought that I should have gone with a simple common foul, ruling that the grab happened after the ball was dead...
