Tough Call 3: Filou Oostende v Igokea m:tel - Fake being fouled

Blue 24 attempts a 3-point field goal while Yellow 6 tries to block the shot. After the ball is released but with Blue 24 still airborne, the referee calls a personal foul to Yellow 6 and awards 3 free throws to Blue 24. Article 33.16 Fake is any action by a player to simulate that he has been fouled or to make theatrical exaggerated movements in order to create an opinion of being fouled and therefore gaining an advantage Outcome: Incorrect decision from the referees. Yellow 6 did not create any illegal personal contact with the shooter. It was the shooter who jumped backward in order to simulate that he had been fouled. This is an excessive fake, a technical foul should have been called to Black 24 and the Green Team should have attempted one free throw. The game should have been resumed with an alternating possession throw-in as neither team had the control of the ball when the technical foul should have been called.
