Question

Last night Varsity boys--my coofficial in lead position had a boy go up for a shot, was fouled, and while still in the air, was pushed hard by the same defender who fouled him. My partner's fist was in the air before the push and he immediately called a T on the player. We proceeded to back them up and shoot 4 shots. My question is not whether or not the T was warranted but whether it was the corrct call or not. The offense was definitely intentional but was not badd enough to be flagrant and since the shooter was still airborne at the time of the push, I feel like a T was innappropriate due to the fact that we still had a live ball situation because of the shooter still being airborne. Please help me figure this out. Had it been my call, and with the luxury of hindsight, I believe I would have just called it an intentional foul, gave him 2 shots and the ball back, Ralph.
