This is one of the times where I hope the T should've had game awareness of what was happening and addressed it ASAP. The player's actions erupt in a matter of seconds but perhaps a quick T on #52 could've stopped it initially.
Thoughts?

There was a play late in the 2nd half where the calling official ruled a foul by grabbing the guy's shorts on a layup and stretching them out by 2 feet "continuation" instead of an intentional foul. Sometimes you have to mete out the obvious in order to stop the crap. My guess is that the supervisor will be doing a lot of investigating, too.
