Absoltely correct. It applies to common fouls committed by players (without the ball) of the team with team control. The apparent intent is treat these fouls the same as a player control foul - no free throws in penalty situations. The number of these fouls aren't typically that significant percentage wise - they consist mostly of either illegal screens, or a post player pushing or holding while trying to get better position.

I understand where buckrog64 is coming from. I go out occassionaly and observe the more experienced officials.(Those that get assigned post season play). I often observe them "kicking this rule" .

Can you give specific examples? Without a specific play it's difficult to judge whether they're kicking the call or not.

Sure,
A 33 drives down the lane passes ball to A 44 momentum cause him/her to charge into B 24 who has LGP. There is no longer player control thus resulting in team control.

4-12-2 A team is in control of the ball when a player of the team is in control, while a live ball is being passed between teammates and during an interrupted dribble.

In your post, there is still team control.

I think that's what he's saying. There's no longer player control, so it's not a PC foul. But there is still TC, which makes this a TC foul.

Could be. I wasn't sure so I posted the rule. Whether or it's team control or player control, the way the penalty is administered doesn't change though. The OP was about awarding free throws. No free throws for either.
