Finally got that intentional

Like I said, I must be envisioning it differently than it happened, but a lowered shoulder from behind would at least have it cross my mind. If the same player did it later in the same game, my threshold would drop a bit also.

Agreed

A few years ago in a FB game, we had a kid pull this. First quarter, he shoved a point guy from behind as the guy was going for a layup. Easy X.
Third quarter, same guy shoves smaller player in the same situation. Partner tossed him.
