OK, lets draw one more distinction to perhaps bridge the gap. Consider boxing out the shooter after a shot when he is in a very upright position vs. boxing out a PF who is already positioning himself in a low stance to get the rebound. Do you consider those cases different at all, from a referee standpoint when observing the player being put on their heels and having to put a foot back (losing position)?
[/B][/QUOTE]No difference at all from a referee's standpoint. Both players are entitled to their spot on the floor. You are also entitled to your normal spot, and the air above it. Neither you or your opponent can
legally move the other from their spot once it's been established. It's that simple.
