I can kinda see the "old timer" thought if the person dribbling the ball had gotten past the defender heading to the basket. At this point, even if the defender is running with the offensive player, if the defensive player is not between the ball handler and the basket, the count should stop as really the defender is not guarding anything.
Now if the offensive player is going sideline to sideline, then it should continue to count
