February 8, 201511 yr Yes technically it is a foul, but that same thing happens virtually every time a free throw is taken, and constantly under the basket blocking out for rebounds. Only reason they called it is because the guy acted like he was hit in the nads. It definitely wasn't a flagrent foul.

Only reason they called it is because the guy acted like he was hit in the nads. It definitely wasn't a flagrent foul. It wasn't called flagrant. It was called a T. In the official's estimation (although video would seem to show otherwise) the foul occurred after the ball went through the net which makes it a dead ball. If you have a foul in a dead ball you either have a T or intentional. Had it been during live ball it's just a common foul. We'll disagree on it always happening on FTs. I never see a FT shooter get knocked backwards. The guy went right into him. That's a foul if he's not coming forward.
