Jump Ball

I felt he obtained an advantage by jumping into the other guy. Are you serious that this should have been ruled a flagrant if contact happened before time ran off. I couldn't find anything in rule book on that. It certainly wasn't excessive contact.

I didn't see the contact, so I don't know whether I'd judge it as flagrant or not.

However, you can certainly have a flagrant foul at any point (inclusive) between when the official's jurisdiction begins and when the referee approves the final score.

In this case, it could even be a flagrant personal foul, because the ball is live once it leaves the R's hands.
