Good pick-up by the Lead to get that foul that started this mess.

Did you notice the player removing his shoe, to throw it? Huge insult in that culture.

Personally I thought it was flagrant instead of an intentional foul. But I guess you had to be there.

Was anyone able to figure out if red 7 did something to blue 11 before B11 donkey kicked him?

Of course it could be religious hatered. Bahrain is 70-75% Shia, minority Sunni. Kuwait is 70-75% Sunni, minority Shia.

Let's all praise Allah as we kick the crap out of each other.

They were probably at Eton together and have been fighting since they were 10.

FIBA does not have flagrant fouls as such, they are deemed Unsporting and the player can be ejected based on the severity of the foul or if they receive 2 Unsporting fouls in one game. Should the foul be determined to be severe enough to require ejection then it is called a disqualifying foul and gets the "cheer" signal (my favorite). Imagine two closed fists raised above the head, like signalling a 3 only with closed hands.

Not good enough. We should have this signal in basketball:

Lucky they didn't start pulling the AK47's from the sports bags and get some REAL serious flagrant fouls going!
