On one hand, I see what JVG is talking about here and on some levels, I agree they should amend the rule now to be able to review flagrant foul penalty one's. On the other hand, the NBA wants to balance that with not holding up play for what is feels it officials should be able to tell (foul vs. FF1). FF2's...sure, review those since an ejection is on the line...but I'm sure the NBA is also cognizant of not wanting to hold up play. They don't want replay to turn into what is has at the college level.
