And if you call this intentional you are insane. Not only does this not fit anything in the rules that makes this intentional, you must have never seen the game of basketball. There is no way this could be intentional because the player was trying to set a screen, not take the player out. The screen was blind and if a teammate would have simply called out the screen, then the contact would have been minimal or non-existent at best. If I called that intentional or flagrant, I might not be talking very long to the supervisor. I would likely get fired or games taken away.

Can we at least agree that the play needs a whistle? I think an agreement between us might be a landmark achievement.
