Handchecks have to do with a ball carrier, post play had to do with players that do not have the ball for the most part. For a foul to be called, you must have some kind of displacement. I have seen in the Big 10 Tournament all weekend players in the post really not pushing each other like it appears. Get up closer you see two individuals causing contact with each other. And considering that many times the offensive player is doing most of the moving, what do you think is suppose to be called?

First of all, listening to fans is kind of ridiculous. Fans only complain about calls that affect their team or what the feel will affect their team. I saw some Iowa fans complain about a rebound where a Penn St. player made some contact after the loose ball, but the contact did not cause the Iowa player to do anything that was illegal or move in a way. The Iowa fans went nuts, and all the Penn St defender did was literally touch him. That was it. And all this time I am hearing how the officials on the floor probably call more fouls than any other officials in the Big 10 put together. The suggestion is that they did not let players play the game. Now you tell me how do you win?

See the problem of what you said is "it looks like sumu wrestling in the post." What it looks like and what it is are two different things. Many times players are just moving around each other, and because post players tend to be stronger than most on the court, it looks much worse than it is. Much of the movement is caused by the players themselves. I mean if an offensive player is moving towards the ball, many times it is because that is where he wanted to be. Look, basketball is a contact sport, players are going to have contact, if you call all contact you would call 80 fouls on one side alone in a game.
