If they're going from east to west I generally won't call it unless there's an advantage gained. Going north and south especially driving to the basket I will call it. Doesn't take much to disrupt a scoring chance. Really no reason to have your hand on the dribblers back.

Gordon, maybe hand checking is forcing offensive player to go east-west, i.e., change direction. Just a thought.

Please see quote above unless an advantage gained. If so "tweet"
