in both cases the games were close and were on the line, why is it in one an intentional and not an intentional in the other?

interested in honest opinions. thank you.

I will try to explain it to you. The wording "intentional foul" has little or nothing to do with a foul being called intentional. A foul can be totally unintentional and be called intentional by rule. Most commentators do not know the rule as most of the public does not know the rule. They think by the name of the foul every foul that is intentional should be called an intentional foul.

That might not help you in your understanding, but that is just the way they explain the rule in the rulebooks.
