By rule, common foul

Related question: we've all seen a defender run at a 3-pt shooter to harass the shot. The shot is gone when the defender arrives, so he turns around to box out the shooter and either hits him hard or gives him that nice buttsy, knocking the shooter down after the shot. Is it a no-call or a common foul?
If the defender knocked down the shooter, it's likley a common foul.

If the shooter flopped (and don't think they don't), then it's nothing.
