Not me. Not even a second thought. He changed directions, but it was fairly quick. Given these kids need to land, I'm giving every benefit of the doubt to the player.

We had a player hang on the rim last week after a missed dunk -- he really didn't have a lot going on around him, but he wanted to be sure he didn't land on someone -- he carefully looked around himself before simply dropping straight down. No showboating, change in elevation, or change in direction.

I was perfectly fine with this, as was my partner. The other coach, though, wasn't -- he ended up picking up a technical foul from my partner for his trouble. I think a good part of this came from the fact they were getting waxed at the time, though.
