Did not know what to call with the raised Fist...I think I could have called an Intentional or Flagrant personal since the ball was live...

The raised fist call, A1 did not strike B1: PF? - Intentional?

If he didn't take a swing at his opponent, I would call a technical foul for an unsporting act- same as Mick.

Note that by rule you can't call a non-contact foul a personal foul during a live ball. All non-contact unsporting fouls during live balls are technical fouls of some kind---regular, intentional or flagrant.

Btw, good job of taking care of bidness. You caught the raised fist before it escalated into something more and you didn't let the coach/player crap on you for making the right call also.
Check out rule 4-19-1 and 4-19-5(b)
