Again, this is not an "automatic" call. I would have to see if the dribbler just got beat to the spot and continued to try to go thru the defender. That happens a lot and I know I am not calling a foul in that case. If anything, I probably would have a no call. No different if a dribbler tries to take on two or more defenders. It is not our job in my opinion to bail out a dribbler for making a bad offensive decisions.
