I made the point that the observing official needs to make the decision on flagrant or not based upon the act itself, not whether contact is made with the opponent. If you believe that a deliberate trip is only intentional, then that's fine. Lastly, fighting involving contact during a live ball is a flagrant personal foul. |

Inquiring Minds Want To Know ...
Just to confirm. If a punch is thrown, and doesn't connect, then there's no contact? Right? So, if it was during a live ball, then it would be a technical foul? Right?

4-18 Fighting Fighting is a flagrant act and can occur when the ball is dead or live. Fighting includes, but is not limited to combative acts such as: ART. 1 An attempt to strike, punch or kick by using a fist, hands, arms, legs or feet regardless of whether contact is made. ART. 2 An attempt to instigate a fight by committing an unsporting act that causes a person to retaliate by fighting. 4-19 Foul A foul is an infraction of the rules which is charged and is penalized. ART. 1 A personal foul is a player foul which involves illegal contact with an opponent while the ball is live ... ART. 4 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. ART. 5 A technical foul is: b. A noncontact foul by a player. The difference impacts who gets to shoot the free throws, the fouled player, or any player, even one the bench.

Don't Jump The Gun And Fall On Your Sword ...
... How's that for a mixed metaphor?
You're too kind. It's me who may be mistaken. Maybe some esteemed Form members will weigh in on this issue. My opinion is: no contact, live ball, it must be a technical foul, but I've been wrong before, it only happened once, a long time ago, but I was wrong that one time, and only that one time.

Contact during a live ball is a personal foul. A non-contact foul during a live ball is a technical foul. |

I would have had to be there to see the intent behind one player trying to grab the other. Did he do it to stop the player from advancing? Did he do it to try and hurt the other player? Those aren't irrelevant questions. |
