Why?

Never say never
I appreciated jritchie take on this, the push/shove could be so egregious that we have no choice but to upgrade from a common personal to an intentional/flagrant personal.
Coach: But it was a loose ball

When it comes to intentional/flagrant, I want to have a reason TO call it, not look for a reason not to call it.
As described, it didn't sound at all intentional or flagrant. Why should I go looking for a reason to make it one. Two guys going for a lose ball and one knocks the other over on the way to the ball....common foul to me.

With the OP being a rookie, I thought jritchies point was a good one. If I got the WHOLE truth & nothing but the truth when I first started out, I wouldnt have had to forget so many of the half truths. Newer officials take the words we say to heart... I know I did. I remember being told that just pointing on OOB was a college mechanic. Years later I found out it was a womens mechanic. The same for standing on the low block for the first of two FTs.

However, fi it was a shove that was not part of just trying to get the ball (it had no basketball purpose) or was excessive, that is where it turns to an intentional.

I like this mechanic for a few reasons:
a) It shows the players there will be another FT b) It looks cool... c) Our assignor doesn't really care ...having said that, if the game is being "rated", using NFHS mechanics...I'll do it like the Romans do.
