I'm wondering how blatent the act would have to be to get it called.

Here is my real question: Would anyone call this in the same situation of a high school or college game?
In Game 4 of the 1998 second round series between the Bulls and Pacers, Reggie shoved Jordan for the top of the key, into the backcourt, before catching the ball and hitting a game winning 3 at the buzzer. That was probably the most blatant shove that I've ever seen with a shooter trying to get open and it wasn't called.

Reggie has been doing this for years. He has 2 games left in his career. They aren't going to start calling it now.
