I called a common foul on A1 and a technical foul on A2 because it was a dead ball foul that I felt was committed with enough force to make that call.

Agree or disagree? Coach wasn't mad, and agrees with call but he felt I should have swallowed my whistle knowing they were trying to foul.
One question: do you mean flagrant or do you mean intentional? It may sound nit-picky but it's the difference between the second defender being ejected.

Either way, as others have said, you shouldn't ignore it regardless of whether there was a foul committed immediately before. If there was that much contact, deal with it.
