I Blame The Coach ...

And it still would have been a charge if Black #1's coach had taught him to run this special play with both feet in bounds.
In my Ancient Days, my coach taught us to get one foot on the sideline when we were pressing. It reminded us that we shouldn't leave any bit of room along the sideline for the ball handler to sneak past us along that sideline, and to funnel the ball handler toward the center of the court where we would get help to set up a trap.
Now that's illegal if there's contact along that sideline.
Misty water-colored memories.
