Hmm. No argument, just a weak attempt at an ad-hominem. The interpretation is wrong because 1)it is inconsistent with other rules and 2) it ignores that basketball is not a game where laying on the floor is to be given precedence over being on one's own two feet. If, in the same play, the ball carrier trips over the feet of a standing player, it is likely a foul, depending on relative time and distance requirements and where his feet are. If you've actually worked games, can you tell me you've NEVER called such a play a blocking foul on the defender?
Argue that instead of making immature and idiotic comments. And don't assume that the rule writers are perfect. There could be political reasons for that interpretation.

Those might just be the all-time stoopidest things that I've ever read on this forum, notwithstanding your previous post. It's a toss-up as which one of them is dumber. Again, the NFHS written rules are
wrong because Aggie says so. Know what? It's just a waste of time trying to argue anything with you, and I'm not even gonna try. You obviously know everything already.
Btw, yup, I've worked a few games in the last 46 years. A few thousand! Do you wanna know what that buys me on this forum in the way of credibility? Nada! Zippo! Nuthin'! Zero! Nil!.....Get the point?
Immature and idiotic? You wrote the book on that, dexterhead!
Lah me!
