20 Years Experience
Chicago, IL
Male, 60
For twenty years I officiated high school, AAU and park district basketball games, retiring recently. For a few officiating is the focus of their occupation, while for most working as an umpire or basketball referee is an avocation. I started ref'ing to earn beer money during college, but it became a great way to stay connected to the best sports game in the universe. As a spinoff, I wrote a sports-thriller novel loosely based on my referee experiences titled, Advantage Disadvantage
Yes, if it is deemed unintentional. In the rulebook.it is called a muff.
Sorry, I am no expert on Fiba rules.
Yes, as long as you keep your pivot foot in place, or if you have no pivot foot, you keep both feet down. Not sure why you would do this, even if it is legal.
As you descibe it, no I would not call it a foul because if you did not hit the wrist the result would be the same...blocked shot.

What was the raciest sculpture you ever made?It depends. Did the tipped ball stay in bounds before exiting or did it got directly out of bounds?
If time has expired and the ball is dead, a personal foul is ignored unless flagrant. If flagrant, it is enforced at the start of the next quarter, unless the game has ended.
Well, the game is final when the officials leave the confines of the game. Since any post game technicals will not affect the score, they are not enforceable. So poor behavior after the game is under the purview of state specific rules or bylaws.
