Double Technicals

No matter what type of foul you call (flagrant personal or flagrant technical) you/need to call offsetting fouls in this situation. B had to commit some type of foul to warrant an ejection.

Technically, I think you would have had a flagrant personal on A, and a T on B. Either way, since it was a double foul, you go to the arrow no matter what type of double it is.

You guys did the right thing in coming to a conclusion. The best thing to do is come together and determine what is going to happen before you go to the bench and report anything.

I agree with your call (flagrant personal-A, flagrant technical-B), but wouldn't this qualify as a false double foul?

To have a double personal, you need 2 personals. To have a double techincal, you need 2 T's. If you have one of each, at least one attribute of a double foul is missing. I'd say 2 shots for B, 2 shots for A, and A's ball @ halfcourt (go in the order the penalties occur).

No matter what the route, the most important thing is to get the two bonehead players out of the game.
