If the players, many of whom have been playing organized basketball since they were old enough to know what a basketball looked like, don't know they are going to have a foul called on them for using their forearm to clear out the defender and plant him on the second row of the bleachers...what makes us think they are going to remember the rules regarding sportsmanship without a reminder?
