I understand the general sentiment you're trying to get across (get rid of troublemakers), but based on the information available to us in the video, I'm not entirely convinced #34 wouldn't have still been in the game for #5 if any of us here on this board would have been working that game.
I guarantee you these were not the only times in the game where he had contact or showed bad ability. I am sure the kid tried to set a screen or play in the post or run to a spot. Somewhere he was doing something unskilled and I doubt this was the only possibility for fouls. These players do not just have moments and then go back to showing great skill.

Peace
