Seatbelt
As I made clear on another thread, I am opposed to the fact that the rule reads in such a way that a pregame dunk leads to a seatbelting of the coach. But I do not disagree with the need to follow the rules as written. You cannot enforce half of a rule. You appear to have felt that they were only "kinda, sorta" dunking, so you would only "kinda, sorta" enforce the rule. It is either a dunk or it isn't, and then the penalties apply.
Why not only give one free throw when the player only partially fouls a shooter and they miss, because it seems appropriate to the offense. They didn't really hammer them.
