For me, a player who bounces the ball hard with two hands and catches it out of frustration is different, from someone who one-handedly winds up and slams the ball down where it bounces half way to the ceiling, or even slams it against a wall.

Each play/situation stands on its own merit and should be called individually. You set the your tolerance threshold - JMO.
Agree 100%

The response to a player throwing a ball up in the air is some variation of "If that comes down, it's a penalty/you're gone."
Ha, I get it. Nice.
