Look who showed up again just in time for the season!

BTW, I agree that grabbing the shirt is an intentional foul ANYTIME during the game ANYWHERE on the court.

Do you also call an intentional foul when B1 grabs A1's arm, shoulder, etc. or when A1 is going up for a shot and B1 fouls then continues to hang on to ensure A1 can't complete the shot? If not, why? If you're calling an intentional on a jersey grab, you'll need to call all of these as intentional in order to be consistent. None of them are accidental. The result is the same. Why is the jersey more holy than any other part of the player?

The intentional fouls it not meant to be use just becasue it was not accidental. It is to stop a foul from neutralizing an obvious advantageous position or to stop a foul just to stop the clock.
