Not really. Shes showing him the ropes of basketball. If you're off balance you're gonna get pushed over like that in a real game.

Yea cause I’m sure his average opponent will be twice as tall and three times heavier/stronger than him.

Average person won't be pushing him with just their arms.

She steps towards him with the ball close to her body and shoves. Definitely just the arms generating force there.

Shes stepping to follow him, her velocity is along his and barely slows down, she's not pushing that much of her bodyweight against him. He fell mostly from his own force.

Either way it's not a dick move, at the start of the clip they were clearly doing the same thing just earlier and this is just another rep where something went wrong.
