"the connected defender" is also the phrase/principle that I was taught to apply in this type of play wherein the action is transitioning from my primary but the "competitive matchup" still inheres.
I am not one to engage in post-foul chatiness with coaches; so, I found the refs "back n forth" with coach to be less than exemplary. In fact the ref almost stumbled into a player trying to report his foul.
Regarding the play, the "continuous motion" principle was correctly applied. Good call ref!
Personally, I m not one to do the fist punch/team control sign for the "and one"; rather I just use the NF sign.
