I know, that is my point as it was a rhetorical question. Is was a case mentioned by sdoebler. When someone makes a gesture, consider the words associated with that gesture. That should help an official in determining how they would handle that gesture.

I recall a high intensity game where A1 was at the FT line. Student section behind the goal was really ribbing the FT shooter. The FT shooter, with the ball, pauses, and gently flips off the student section. Nothing escalated. How might some of you handle that one if you saw it as an official?
