And the band played on.....

Crossed forearms above the head was the signal. Foul charged to a player away from the ball. I was watching the shooter so I really do not know what led to the call. No argument from team "A".

My guess would be a nice two-handed shove during rebounding action.

But there is no penalty associated with this rule.

Rare, yes. But not unheard of. I had a situation exactly like SNIPERBBB's back in December. My radar was tuned to a problem child, and sure enough, on a rebound, he gave an exceptionally hard shove to a defender, and by then I was more than happy to show him what my arms looked like when placed in the shape of an "X" above my head.

Probably exactly what happened here. Only thing unique about this was that the expiration of time was a factor in the administration of the penalty.

And for what it's worth....agree, the officials should have stopped the band first. They rushed it, then made an ill-informed decision in an attempt to "correct" their oversight.
