Layup
Scrappy (read ugly) game. Lots of fouls. Not too much talent. Near end A1 misses a layup. Tip tip rebound ball goes up misses tip tip B1 hits the floor tip ball goes up misses tip tip rebound secured by A2. A2 is standing under the basket so he takes a step to his right but can't because B1 is lying there on his side with his arms covering his head. A2 looks down, places his right foot on B1's hip and from there puts in the lay up. You are at C and clearly saw the entire sequence.

I think I might have an intentional personal foul for stepping on the kid on the floor. |
If it had been his teammate, it would be a technical foul for not being a basketball play. Because it's an opponent, I'd call it flagrant technical and toss him. And then come home and write a "what is this world coming to?" post on the forum.
So, what did you do, Dan? |
Right - On! Unsporting Violation? Spirit of the rules? Unfair advantage? Intentional foul?
Many ways to get that player a seat. |

You know better than that, Juulie. Gotta be a personal foul of some kind- PC, intentional or flagrant. That determination is up to the calling official. |
I think an intentional foul covers it well here.

BTW, this game was played under ncaa rules. The ncaa book contains this under 4.33.4a:

If A2's pivot foot was his right foot, and he then lifted that pivot foot to take the step, and subsequently put his pivot foot down on B1 to jump off him, is that traveling?:D |

btw...might have been nice to calmly come out of that mess with a whistle for a travel, but if he travelled I missed it coach. |

But the AR is clear - B1 has taken an illegal position. |
