Ironically Felicia Grinter (the C official on this play) was one of my clinicians in Orlando, and actually mentioned to me that line of thinking that once the shot is blocked cleanly that contact on the follow through needs to be severe enough to cause true affect on the play.
In this case, the shot was capped and then, the flailing and so forth by Bird was to try and bait the call.
Good to see Felicia practice what she preaches!
