A flagrant foul-penalty (2) is unnecessary and excessive contact committed by a player against an opponent. It is an unsportsmanlike act and the offender is ejected immediately. The offender will be subject to a fine not exceeding $35,000 and/or suspension by the Commissioner. See Rule 12B-Section IV for interpretation and penalties. he had the 1 and then he got a t?? or did i miss something???
This about yesterday? It was b.s. flagrant in the first place. Scott Foster gave him and Kobe a T with the quickness, probably because he was embarrassed and he didn't like getting called out. He would've only gotten ejected if it was a flagrant 2 or 2 techs.
I thought the same thing, but no one even mentioned it during the game. If you get a tech on a flagrant foul, and then you get a tech for your reaction, that is 2 techs...How was he not ejected? And how did no one notice this and explain why?
he never got a tech on the flagrant foul. he got a flagrant foul. the tech was on his reaction. So basically he got 1 flagrant & 1 technical. = No Ejection
right. flagrant fouls and technical fouls are completely different things. artest's flagrant yesterday was complete BS. on top of that it could be debated that it wasnt even a foul, only reason it was called because whats his face fell down.
