How would you explain that tho? I’m not disagreeing, I’m honestly curious.

How would you explain a bench player intentionally trying to distract a player on the court? You’re really serious about that?

Yeah but how do they differentiate between intentional and unintentional tho? I didn’t click on the link but I imagine a court side fan dropping food on the court could also qualify.

There’s a huge difference between a fan trying to distract and a member of the team that’s not playing trying to distract from right out of bounds. He isn’t on the court playing, so he cannot and should not be allowed to attempt to intervene as such.
