How should this situation be handled?

I am sorry. I did not read the word "dribbler." That is what happens when you are reading and watching something at the same time.

Peace

I've got an intentional foul on B5. Score the bucket. A5 on the line shooting 2 and will inbound at the spot closest to the foul. What am I missing? A shove in the back is intentional to me.

Mregor,
A push from behind to get a rebound could be just a push, eh?

Doesn't sound like going for a rebound to me. Sounds like the defensive player got.....Oops, just got it. A1 is the shooter, A5 was the one who set the screen. See, I did miss something.

Could be a push, could be intentional, could be flagrant. I'd have to see the play. If it was simply jostling for rebond position it would just be a push. If B pushed A5 into A1 or pushed him/her forcibly out of the way, could be intentional. Another possibility is if A5 was pushed into A1, could be flagrant on B. The penalty depends on how you see and judge the play.

It was just a push in the back going for a rebound. No flagrant or intentional.
