			Interesting situation in the second half of this game.
 A1 is driving toward the basket.  B1 is called for a common foul before the shot.  In the continuation of the play, A1's elbow comes up at catches B1 on the chin.  The initial call, again, was a non-shooting foul on B1.
 
 The officials go to the monitor to look at the contact after the whistle.
 
 They determine that the elbow-to-chin contact merited further action.  Mike Sanzere came over to the broadcast table to explain, and he said they were charging a dead ball contact technical foul on A1.
 
 Team B shot two free throws and got the ball at mid court.
 
 My only concern is with the terminology and the resumption of play.  Should this have been called a flagrant 1?  The contact that was penalized was completely unintentional (so it seemed to me), and wouldn't B1 get the ball at  the POI (94 feet from their basket)?
