Faking Being Fouled

[Adam]

You don't need rules backing. You need assigner backing. While the two normally go together, it's not always so. If you don't believe me, try calling a FT violation as soon as you count to ten sometime. Or, try calling three seconds by the letter.
I have called this T exactly once, in a 7th grade YMCA game, after I warned the coach, when the defender grunted and fell as the dribbler got within about six feet. Here, I can tell you in a HS game, if I made the call from the video without a warning, I'd be "counseled." And the rule wouldn't do jack squat for me.
Also, the block is accepted some places as a remedy.
