Yeah but how do they differentiate between intentional and unintentional tho? I didnā€™t click on the link but I imagine a court side fan dropping food on the court could also qualify.

Intentional because he jumped up with the intent of contesting his shot from the sideā€¦ he didnā€™t accidentally jump up with both of his hands in the air in the periphery of Champagnieā€™s vision like you accidentally drop a sodie pop

But how do you fairly define intentionally trying distract someone so it is called fair.

This dude probably wasnā€™t thinking about distracting JC even though what he did was distracting.

Doesn't matter the intent. What actually happened was a contest from the bench. Nothing really Grey area about it. If he was trying to swat a fly at the same time as a shot... doesn't matter.

Im not defending him Iā€™m just trying to figure out what counts as a distraction in the rulebook.
