I'm guessing the reference is to "faking" being fouled ... 10-3-6-f

That would be the one.

I have also had a 'no call' on this situation. And I had a play like this last night.

Horse of quite a different color compared to the OP. The differences are obvious to the trained observer. Certainly not an 'automatic' in either circumstance

In your judgment. All of these plays are 'had to be there' plays. One size doesn't fit all. Had the player just started to fall with immediate contact? Had he gone a good ways toward the floor? We don't know. But neither of us saw the play. And I also had the word 'could' in my first post.
