Disconcertion?

As free thrower begins his motion, defensive player on bottom points at his foot and says "Hey, watch your foot". Disconcertion?

He's pointing at his own foot? The shooter's foot? HTBT, but I'd likely call this.

If your saying its the shooters foot I would call this if he misses. If he doesn't miss a quick "are you kidding me?" quitely to the offender should fix this.

He was pointing at the shooters foot. Shooter missed, I called it. He said he was talking to his teammate across the lane. I told him he has terrible am with his pointing. He smiled.

In the end, it really doesn't matter who he was talking to, I was just curious.

It's a cop out but I think this is something you really HTBT to judge for sure. Try not to over think it too much, sometimes you just have to officiate the game.

I think I'd call this almost 100% of the time.
