I try to refrain from warning a player about violations or fouls. I simply blow the whistle.

I don't see how one could give a warning regarding a flagrant foul. It either is flagrant when committed or it isn't. I would never call an intentional foul in the first half on a player and warn him that the next one would be flagrant. That just isn't right. Each offense must be judged on its own.

If both fouls meet the threshold for intentional, but not flagrant, then the official should penalize both of them as intentionals.

Spot on Nevada... if a commisioner, supervisor, etc. is viewing this play, the tape needs to support the action. You can't "preface" it with an earlier play. The video and rules will not support you if that is the case.

Did it take you 3+ months to come to that conclusion? I believe in patient whistles, but that's ridiculous. :D

sometimes the whistle really is late.

It's a pretty obvious charge.

PS Flagrant and Player Control fouls don't exist in FIBA.
