This would also allow the offensive player the time and distance to react before he leaves his feet on anew attempt to score at the basket.
Call more PC fouls and amazingly players start pulling up more. So you can disagree if you like, but been doing this long enough or been calling enough PC fouls in games where somehow the players adjust.
