If there's no basket I'll whistle it and I'm pretty sure I've never heard a player complaint about the "delayed" whistle since the person knew they were in the wrong.

Do you guys call this foul?
Nope. Unless it is really ugly, I let it go. I understand why some call it, but I think it is one that you can let slide. Plus, I very rarily see it called in Div 1.

True, but it was called in the Celtics/Hornets game last night. If it's obvious, you better put a whistle on it, regardless of the level of the game.

Jim,

It is nice to see we got this one right after the heat we took on it. Good call!
