Intramural men's league. NCAA rules. Decent level of ball.

A1 on a fast break drives to the basket. B1 coming from the opposite angle. I assume there will be some contact on the block attempt. A1 takes off and B1 meets him in mid air and BOOM. Good hard contact, but B1 was definitely going for the ball. I'm lead and in perfect position. I call a common foul and feel good about it. A1 loses it so I have to T him.

I think a lot of players/coaches think that hard contact is automatically intentional. I disagree. A good, hard foul is basketball. There was nothing dirty about B1's actions.

Thoughts?
