It looks deliberate to me, he's done.

If I see it. It's quick, and neither official has the same angle as the camera, so it's very possible they didn't see it. Turn this video in to the league, though, and let them deal with it. This is the sort of play that can be dealt with after the fact. They may not agree with me that it was deliberate, but that's not a normal movement IMO.

+1

This is not the act of some clumsy, underachieving, frustrated ball player.

Judging by the officials shorts, this looks like some off season ball. Never know what you're gonna get there when it comes to officiating, coaching & players alike.
BUT the L is wearing college wides so that makes me pay a bit more attention to him as it suggests he may have a college schedule.

This video is great reinforcement of why we need to close down on held balls... especially in the paint.

Not knowing whats happened up to this point in the game, the score seems to favor A1 & I wouldn't think he would be in frustration mode. It looks flagrant to me, I would like to believe I would use proper held ball procedures & not have to respond to this play as opposed to (the OPs question) reacting to it. It appears that the L was more concerned about his holding his perfect signal up high than using his voice while dead balling his call & I wonder what the T was looking at after the whistle.

Curious, was this called a held ball & nothing more??

Frankly, I don't care what happened up to this point in the game. The kid got frustrated at the held ball and kicked out of frustration. This is a flagrant T all the way.

Tref, you make a good point about moving closer to the play on the held ball. If the L gets in quickly I don't know if it prevents the kick but at least he sees it and can deal with it. As Snaq pointed out, if the officials had the same view as the camera maybe (hopefully) a call is made.

JugglingRef...it doesn't have to be deliberate to be a flagrant:

A flagrant foul may be a personal or technical foul of a violent or savage nature, or a technical noncontact foul which displays unacceptable conduct. It may or may not be intentional. If personal, it involves, but is not limited to violent contact such as: striking, kicking and kneeing. If technical, it involves dead-ball contact or noncontact at any time which is extreme or persistent, vulgar or abusive conduct. Fighting is a flagrant act.

In the NBA that's nothing because the officials have to account for a player's momentum.

Flagrant T. Send him to the bench, talk with the coach, and hope the kid learns his lesson.

I don't "care" either, just saying I probably wouldn't have expected such frustration on a simple held ball call either... unless some things occured earlier in the game. Not that it makes a difference, this is a flagrant act. Expect the unexpected, right
