Should Either Be Flagrant? (Video)

We could have a nice debate on whether or not these should be intentional fouls.

In the first one I can't tell what the shorter player in white does. It is actually 32 white that hits shooters arm. Hard foul but not intentional to me. I can't tell if shorter white player gave her blatant shove. From what I see, no intentional on it.

Number two- I could easily see intentional foul. Again, white 32, just wails at shooters arms. If she hits a lot of ball, not intentional. If she swings this hard and isn't near the ball I could call intentional. Looked like her mind was made up to swing as hard as she could. Looks like she could use an intentional.

I have common fouls on both plays.

First common.
Second. hmm, I would want to know what occurred before if that defender has been doing hard fouls. I think I would go with intentional but not really a problem if a common foul is called.

Only if your daughter plays for the team being fouled.
