So that brawl ended up with just 2 free-throws plus possession? Were there lots of techs that cancelled each other out?

There was like 1 second left. Can't understand why they even came back to shoot that free throw.

Was it just that they took umbrage at him stepping over the guy he'd blocked?
Was the blocker from the winning team or losing team?

I believe the blocker was from the winning team.

Nbl refs would love this. After 55 minutes of video reviews

It started when the ball was stolen off the guy running the clock out. #unwrittenrule1 that guy got blocked and went to ground. #unwrittenrule2 don't stand over a guy and taunt him when you have won by a big margin.

If the commentators were correct, the rule change that all games must complete the full 40 minutes (plus OT) is due to gambling. Another reason those unwritten rules should be disregarded. Playing hard to the final buzzer is actually being respectful of the opponent and in the spirit of competition.

I'm mostly referring to the steal in the dying seconds. I assume De Sousa's aggression was triggered by this.
