If they were trying to prevent a 3-pt shot and put the guy on the line for FT's - it's a smart play, one that we see at every level.

I agree with the NBA saying there should have been a call. Perhaps it should have been Flagrant-1 (intentional), but still should have been a whistle.

My $0.02

Not likely, but then again this was not a typical end of game foul situation. And since the contact did not really affect the play, I might have possibly passed. Not saying I would have actually passed on the play, just saying I understand in a split second why they passed.

I agree that was not a Flagrant-1. I might have passed on that contact early in the game but at the end of the game, when the entire crew knows the game situation (even at my level we always go over TO's available, foul count, time on clock, arrow and anything else we can cover) and the game is physical...60+ fouls called...I would definetly get the first contact so there would be no question if I should have called a flagrant.

When did I say anything about this being a Flagrant (NBA or non-NBA Standard)?
