I caught a little bit of MN vs ATL and Miles is so casual about carrying the ball I think it somehow fakes out the refs.

She was dribbling in the corner when she just pinned the ball against her hip for a full count before she let the ball fall again. Maddening, I say!

Ha! I found a good clip of it, it's the first play.

This seems to be a different but actually better angle than what the broadcast showed. It's sooooo ridiculous.

Wait a second. She slapped the basket stanchion. That is supposed to be an automatic technical foul. And then a ball bounced off her foot and caused a delay in the game during a dead ball. That is also supposed to be an automatic technical foul(assessed to the team not the player).

She’s got a lot of skill, but the refs need to call her on the carrying of the ball. This isn’t a case of taking an extra gather step. Or taking a few gather steps before both hands are on the ball to stop the dribble like CC does rather often. Both of which I’m not a fan of being allowed in the game today. She’s literally putting her hand under the bottom of the ball and then continuing to dribble.

It's the same as when CC (and others) change pivot feet multiple times on the perimeter when they pick up their dribble...they just don't call violations like they could unless it has a significant impact on the play.

Was the act intentional?
Is delay of game an automatic technical?
Click to expand...

The kicked ball was the result of a reckless action by throwing the ball away.
By rule:
Failure to resume play promptly after a timeout or a stoppage. Tossing the ball away in anger/disgust created the delay. Should have been called.
Cause: Temper tantrum. Poor sportsmanship. Unprofessional behavior due to frustration of one's own play, and not getting "bail" calls from officials.
Opinion: Looks to me like it was intentional.
