Yes...last season in a non-league Boys HS Varsity game. Team B getting crushed, opponents running up score...going for 100. Both teams were still playing ball, however. 98 to thirty something. team B has the ball with under a minute to go when they take a timeout. Their goal is to prevent the other team from making 100....the come out in a stall. Team A is pursuing the ball but team B is doing a decent job of keep away until A3 picks off a pass at the top of the key for fast break with about 20 seconds left. B1 chases him down and lays a pretty good football block in the back just as A3 releases the layup. A3, who I think was the coach's son, didn't get up for several minutes. He did get up and walk off but he was going to be sore for a couple of days.

...and not one word from either coach about anything.

First, welcome to the board. Glad you found us here. Second, how does it feel to be on the political map?

Third, I've never seen a 4- or 5-point play result from an intentional foul, but I see a foul on a successful 3-point try once or twice a season, making a potential 4-point play.
