Ahead of the curve...

I have had at peasy 1 per week this season including 2 tonight. However, most are not the dramatic bowl 'em over type, usually a bump or push off before the shot. Defender gets displaced but not knocked down hard.

A side question to this: I have had a few no calls this season when A1 & B1 have very slight contact followed by B1 falling back as if charged. I let this go because the contact did not cause him to fall (but not a full flop) and the shot was not affected. However, two old vets told me that I should hit that on B1 to knock off the falls tothe floor and because B1 is now laying in the lane which rstricts A1's ability to rebound. My gake is that B1 has a right tothstspot on the floor and I'm not calling fouls for incidental contact just because one player falls down. What are your philosophies on this? How do you call these bump and falls?
